FA Cup: Pep Guardiola is ‘a giant’ and facing Manchester City boss an ‘honour’ for Plymouth boss Miron Muslic

Plymouth Argyle head coach Miron Muslic says it will be “the biggest honour of my life” to take on Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola in the FA Cup.

Muslic succeeded Wayne Rooney as Argyle boss in January and guided the Pilgrims to a 1-0 win over runaway Premier League leaders Liverpool in the last round.

The Bosnian-born Austrian has guided Argyle off the bottom of the Championship and to within three points of safety, before their next league game on Tuesday against Hull City – the side immediately above them in the table.

The former Cercle Brugge boss says former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss Guardiola, who has guided City to six Premier League titles, two FA Cups, four EFL Cups and the 2023 Champions League, is someone he looks up to.

“I think he’s a giant in our sport, a giant as a coach,” Muslic told BBC Radio Devon.

“I think he’s one of the most successful coaches in sports history, one of the most successful coaches in football history.

“It’s the biggest honour in my life, in my career as a coach, so I’m very much looking forward to shaking his hand and telling him that he’s a giant of our sport and a huge, huge role model for every single coach in the world.”
