Pep Guardiola: Sir Jim Ratcliffe speaks 'the truth' in bid to topple Man City | Daily Mail Online

Pep Guardiola has bluntly responded to Sir Jim Ratcliffe's aim to knock Manchester City "off their perch" by pointing out he speaks "the truth".Ratcliffe completed his purchase of a 27.7 per cent stake in Manchester United this week and immediately set out his ambitions to restore the club to the top of the English and European game.He did this by reprising the language of Sir Alex Ferguson, who similarly pledged to rein in Liverpool in his early days as manager at Old Trafford.
