England manager Thomas Tuchel: "The impact he had on every league where he trained, it's just one of a kind, just one of the very, very, very best.
"He made a big revolution with the way he played at Barcelona and then he put everything upside down in the German league, and then he comes here and crushes every record.
"It's just outstanding. There are no words that can describe this determination and this level of input, it's just highest, highest level."
Aston Villa manager Unai Emery: "He is the best coach in the world. He is a huge inspiration for other coaches, the only genius is him..
"As a competitor, wow. Always, every day, I can understand more how he is managing his team through the chapters.
"It's my pleasure to play against Guardiola, it's my honour to face him.
"I beat him here after a long time with Aston Villa and always how he shows with me massive respect is something I appreciate a lot."
Barcelona manager Hansi Flick: "Staying 10 years at a club of this level is unbelievable. What he's achieved is truly amazing.
"I always say that Pep is the best coach in the world, and he's proven that over the past 10 years, year after year. Even when things weren't going well, he always knew how to handle the situation and manage it. He's delivered exceptional work.
"I wish him now to rest a little, and to take his time before returning, and I hope he does return, because he's still young enough to do that."
Barcelona sporting director Deco: "It was unbelievable what he achieved. It's amazing. The impact he had on the game, the impact he had on the players is amazing.
"It's not easy to be in this level all these years and winning. People say it's fun to play but you need to win and he was a winner and for me is one of the best coaches in the world."
Oasis frontman and City fan Liam Gallagher: "He came, he conquered, long live the king, thank you for the good times Pep."
Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan: "I said a long time ago that Manchester City should have the very best people at its disposal, both on and off the field.
"For 10 years Pep has been the personification of that ambition.
"He has made an indelible imprint on the DNA of the club. One that is borne more from how he won than from the many trophies he lifted."
City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak: "There have been points along the way when he could have stopped, and it would have been enough. Somehow, Pep always found new energy and pushed on, finding different and innovative ways to continue winning and delivering success.
"As a result, the club has a decade of memories and success to be forever grateful for, and much more than that, an evolution that cannot be undone.
"The unique approach that he brings to his coaching has allowed him to constantly challenge the accepted truths of our game. It is the reason that in the last 10 years he has not only made Manchester City better - he has also made football better."
