Robben picks Man City boss Guardiola over Mourinho, Ancelotti

Arjen Robben has ranked Pep Guardiola as his best manager.

The former Bayern Munich winger, who retired at the end of last season, has also worked under the likes of Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti.

But he says Manchester City boss Guardiola is the best.

The Netherlands winger said: "That's difficult, of course. But if you ask me who was the best, I say Pep Guardiola. I enjoyed it most with him. Football-wise, he is simply brilliant.

"When Pep came, I was already 30 years old. You're just trying to stay constant and not get any worse. But under him I got better again. I suddenly played in different positions where I never thought that I would play. He was the best."
