PEP'S 10-SEASON STAT just proves how ridiculously good Don Revie actually was 💙💛
Pep Guardiola is one of only TWO managers in English top-flight history to finish in the top four in every single one of his first 10 seasons.
The other one? Don Revie at Leeds United between 1964-65 and 1973-74 👏
Now think about the context for a second...
Pep achieved it with one of the richest clubs in world football and an unlimited transfer budget. Revie built Leeds from the ground up. Youth players, local lads, discipline, identity and pure grit. No billions spent. Just genius management and a mentality that transformed Leeds United into one of the most feared sides in Europe.
And yet somehow, when people debate the greatest managers in English football history, Don Revie barely gets the respect he deserves. The media endlessly talk about Ferguson, Wenger and others — but this stat shows even THEY never managed this level of consistency over a decade.
What Revie built at Leeds wasn't just successful... it was legendary. A culture. An identity. A dynasty.
Side before self. Always 💙💛
Super Leeds since 1968

Tell me - I've got to know
Tell me - Tell me before I go
Does that flame still burn, does that fire still glow
Or has it died out and melted like the snow
Tell me  Tell me
