I wouldn't consider Pep to be one of the super human coach with alot of tactics you acclaim to him. There is no doubt that Pep is a good coach but there is doubt if he is so much tactical and better than his colleagues. I am not sure if Manchester City squad is given to Klopp that he would misuse it. The perfect thing is that the best players are playing for the best coach. Check the years of Manchester City dominance of the English Premier league if any other club has better player than them or has a better team depth than them.
What Pep is doing is what every other good coach can do with a squad as good as the Manchester City team. The day is stopped seeing Pep as a tactical guru was his champions league finals with Tuchel of Chelsea. I didn't believe how Pepe missed the finals with armature featuring. He kept his natural 9 on the bench, Kun Aguero and played his false 9 with a midfielder in champions league finals. Then he left his midfielder open by benching Fernadinho. Infact I don't still understand what happened that day.
