Pep Guardiola plans Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger dinner as he makes history

Pep Guardiola will invite Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger to dinner after breaking another Premier League record.

Manchester City’s 1-0 win at Brentford was Guardiola’s 250th as a manager in the Premier League.

It has taken Guardiola just 349 matches to reach the milestone, while the next best – Ferguson at Manchester United and Wenger’s Arsenal – both took more than 400.

“It’s an honour to be alongside Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger, I will invite them to a good dinner,” smiled the Spaniard.

“It’s a pleasure to be part of that in Premier League history. Really pleased. Now let’s go for 250 more!”

Erling Haaland ticked the Gtech Stadium off his to-do list as one of only two Premier League venues he had not previously scored at.

Just eight minutes had elapsed when the Norwegian striker raced on to a ball over the top from Josko Gvardiol.

Haaland bulldozed his way between Bees defenders Sepp van den Berg and Nathan Collins before lashing his shot past Caoimhin Kelleher.

Yes, Gigio!
