Steve McManaman believes Pep Guardiola will change things dramatically at Manchester City.

The Spanish coach will take the reins at the Etihad Stadium this summer and former Liverpool, Real Madrid and City winger McManaman has joined the chorus of people suggesting the current Bayern Munich boss will be a hit in England.

"I'm really excited by it, he's a great coach," McManaman said on behalf of Capital One.

"His Barcelona team were great. Regardless of him not winning the Champions League he has improved Bayern Munich, they're a better team to watch - I know they won the treble (the previous season).

"They're a great side; their movement is brilliant. I know the players at Bayern really love working with him and he'll be great for Manchester City.

"I want City want to play really entertaining football. You can't play like Barcelona but he'll make them play better, and they'll be a better team to watch, and I'm really looking forward to how he does it.

"He'll improve all of them. He's got this ability to make the players better and be more comfortable.

"(At City) Raheem's (Sterling) on the left wing, with (Aleksandar) Kolarov bombing around him, David Silva's always inside, and I don't think their movement is good enough. Pep would sort that out.

"They've been incredibly inconsistent with the squad they've got, and Pep will bring in his own people, he'll certainly make them into a force."
