Arsenal legend Arsene Wenger thinks Manchester City have not reached the top level of football just because of their huge transfer spending power. The former Gunners boss lauded Pep Guardiola as a 'top class coach' and believes the Spaniard has survived at the top level because of his quality as a manager.
City are on the brink of winning a famous treble after already lifting the Premier League trophy and FA Cup earlier this season. Arsenal pushed Guardiola's side all the way in the title race but fell short towards the end of a thrilling 2022/23 campaign.
City beat fierce rivals Manchester United at Wembley to win the FA Cup as they now aim to match United's historic achievement by winning the treble. Speaking ahead of the Champions League final, Wenger believes City have created a mentally strong team by being intelligent in the transfer market.
