REVEALED: Premier League manager of the season FOR 2018/2019 campaign

Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola has been named the Barclays Manager of the Season after guiding the Citizens to consecutive Premier League title. The Spaniard's team were crowned champions on the final day thanks to a 4-1 victory at Brighton & Hove Albion which took them to 98 points, the second-most ever reached in a PL season behind only the 100 they themselves managed last term. In beating runners-up Liverpool by one point Guardiola became only the third manager in PL history to retain the title, after Sir Alex Ferguson and  Jose Mourinho. "It’s an honour to receive this award," Guardiola told in a video message. "I want to share it with my players because they are the artists of everything, to my staff because we fought a lot [against] all the managers in the Premier League, especially Jurgen Klopp, an incredible contender to face till the end. "It was a pleasure to play against all of them and hopefully do big, big battles again to win an incredible title."
