Gary Neville has claimed that a certain figure at Manchester City has an incredible appetite for winning at all times.

Such a claim could be made about any and everyone at City as the culture at the club is a seemingly constructive one.

Season after season, if there is one club in the world that seems determined to make history, it is the seven-time Premier League winners.

After winning the treble last season, it would have been understandable if the Sky Blues underwent a massive dip this campaign due to mental and physical burnout.

Jack Grealish rightly admitted one of his thoughts after winning the treble was, “Will any happiness ever come close to this?”

It is natural to feel the way Grealish presumably did, as perhaps some of his teammates might have felt as well.

However, the Englishman’s admission during the same interview was that after watching the club’s official treble documentary on Netflix, he wishes to win it once again.

After a player’s mind starts to think about whether the treble can be topped, it must be difficult to rewire one’s approach to being motivated again after having such thoughts.

But once again, it is key to highlight just how brilliant Manchester City’s culture is, which has been set for over a decade now.

If not for the likes of Vincent Kompany, Sergio Aguero, David Silva and Yaya Toure, perhaps the likes of Fernandinho, Kyle Walker, Kevin De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva would have been unable to lead the next generation of the team.

Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Walker and Bernardo perhaps proved to be such examples for names like Rodri, Dias and Ake.

While Rodri, Dias and Ake might have set the standards for how to act on and off the pitch as City players for Grealish and Haaland.

However, such a culture, especially in recent years has been instilled by Pep Guardiola, who Gary Neville lauded as a serial winner.

“It’s a big week. Big, big week for City, they know what they’re doing, they have real experience, class, rhythm, a manager who has got an unbelievable winning mentality and it’s now difficult to stop, very difficult to stop”, he said on Sky Sports’ The Gary Neville Podcast.

In our view, Gary Neville is correct about Pep Guardiola having an “unbelievable winning mentality.”

Sure, a peek at the £378,846-a-week man’s trophy cabinet, both from his managerial and playing career is enough to explain why that is the case.

But especially as a manager, the fact that after having won everything possible at club level on multiple occasions, the fact that Pep Guardiola continues to give his job all is an indicator of how much he enjoys management.

Of course, the Manchester City legend is a winner and he seemingly loves to go toe-to-toe with other managers at the club at the elite level but that comes down to his love for management and football.

The cutthroat winning mentality Guardiola and any top manager have stems from how much they enjoy their job.
