Sir Alex Ferguson believes Pep Guardiola will struggle to replicate the success he had at Barcelona when he takes charge of Manchester City. The current Bayern Munich head coach, who won 14 major honours in four seasons at the Camp Nou, is set to replace Manuel Pellegrini at the Etihad Stadium at the end of the season.The former Manchester United manager admits Guardiolas appointment is a coup for his former cross-city rivals, with the Spaniards tenacious work ethic, coaching ability and trademark style of play revered across Europe. However, speaking exclusively to Sky Sports, Ferguson fears the demands of Premier League football may stifle Guardiolas influence.Without question Pep has got a fantastic work ethic about him, he demands that from all of his training sessions, he said.Anyone who thinks theyre not going to work hard at City wont last long. He has got great coaching ability, there is no doubt about that. Guardiola achieved unrivalled success during his three-year spell at Barcelona Man City have made a real coup in getting him but Pep wont find it easy, English football is not easy.Every foreign coach that has come to England will tell you that. Arsene Wenger was talking about that a few months after coming and even Jose Mourinho was.Pep will be a success but I dont think hell ever replicate what he did at Barcelona because that was a high standard - they were the best. Guardiolas Barceona team was the greatest, according to Ferguson This seasons Premier League campaign has seen the established clubs dominance challenged like never before, with Leicester City and Tottenhams surprise emergence as genuine title contenders.Ferguson expects a reaction from the so called big clubs next season, just as he managed to do in response to successful campaigns from Blackburn, Arsenal, Chelsea and City during his tenure at Old Trafford.And it is for that reason Ferguson feels Guardiola is not guaranteed immediate success at Eastlands. Pep won’t find it easy, English football is not easy. There is no guarantee Man City can win the league. That’s the beauty of the Premier League. Sir Alex Ferguson You have to ask what the big clubs are going to do, he added.If you take my time at United, when Chelsea and Jose came on the scene, in the first two years they had quick starts, so I had to accept that challenge.Thats what you have to do when youre a big club. Arsenal, Liverpool and the other clubs have to accept the challenge when they are not good enough.Theyll have their own ambitions and will be desperate to win the league next season as much as City, so Pep there is not a guarantee they can win the league.Thats the beauty of our league. Arsenal, City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham will want to do something and now, of course, Leicester City are there. Whos to say they cant win it next season?
