City’s 1-0 victory over Brentford means Pep Guardiola has taken just 349 matches to register 250 Premier League wins.
Erling Haaland's early goal was enough for City in west London on Sunday to extend our positive recent form.
It means that Guardiola has achieved yet another Premier League record in an exceptional career.
Brentford 0-1 City | Match report
He hit the landmark 55 matches quicker than the next fastest manager to the tally, with Alex Ferguson needing 404 games to get to 250 in the Premier League.
Arsene Wenger is next, requiring 423 matches to reach the total.
Guardiola's win percentage of 71.6% is better than anyone else in the division’s history, outshining next best Alex Ferguson and Antonio Conte with 65.2% and 62.9% each.
Now in his 10th campaign at the Etihad Stadium, Pep has led us to six Premier League titles and a run of unprecedented domestic dominance during his time in Manchester.
WATCH: Pep Guardiola: Every Trophy Won (so far!)
After a rebuild in his first term, he inspired us to back-to-back titles in 2017/18 and 2018/19.
The 2017/18 season remains a Premier League record, with City winning 32 of our 38 games and amassing 100 points.
We matched that win record in the following season, emerging victorious in another 32 matches.
City then averaged 28 wins a season over our four-in-a-row titles between 2020/21 and 2023/24.
That run has left Guardiola second in terms of managers with the most Premier League titles, only behind Alex Ferguson.
With 18 major honours in total in his nine full seasons, our boss has defined the last decade in English football and his indelible mark on the Premier League only continues to grow.
Congratulations to Pep on this latest milestone in an astonishing career!
