Man City boss Guardiola wins Manager of the Year double

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has been named the LMA's Manager of the Year.

Guardiola was a double winner at the League Managers' Association awards night - and dedicated his success to Sir Alex Ferguson.

City boss Guardiola was crowned Premier League Manager of the Year and also won the overall LMA award.

But Guardiola sent his best wishes to former Manchester United boss Ferguson who is recovering after brain surgery.

Guardiola said: “I want to share this manager with all the other managers and I hope Sir Alex will be here to share it with us.

“We achieved records and success that we'll remember for the rest of our lives."

Cardiff boss Neil Warnock received a lifetime achievement award while Arsene Wenger was handed a special merit award in his absence.
