Pep Guardiola (Manchester City)
Who else could it be other than the man whose side sit nice and pretty at the top of the table with 72 points so far and 13 clear of second? Pep Guardiola is in his second season in charge and has made City the most feared team in England.
This past summer Guardiola got rid of the dead weight and brought in fresh talent and this has rejuvenated the side, leading to an amazing run. City have lost just once in the league so far this season and although they have an endless pile of money to spend, that shouldn’t take away from the fact that Guardiola has managed to create one of the best sides in Premier League history.
SOUTH
Mauricio Pochettino (Tottenham Hotspur)
Mauricio Pochettino has turned Spurs from a laughing stock to genuine title contenders in the four years he’s been there while developing the likes of Kane and Dele Alli into top players. Spurs just recently outplayed Juventus in the Champions League at the Juventus stadium, something that would have seemed impossible before Pochettino came in.
Spurs currently sit in fourth, just 4 points off second and Pochettino is likely to guide them to their third consecutive Champions League finish.
