Who is better?
Pep has been good but has never been at the club's the size of Mourinho as in Porto & Inter

All time, who has the more impressive CV considering everythingAll time or right now?
I think they are both great, but certainly not flawless, managers.

Both have managed clubs that tend to be the biggest or best financially (or quality wise) in the leagues they manage.
I don't think using the 'only managed top clubs' stick is a fair one though. They are elite managers, of course the biggest and best teams are going to want them to manage them.
Guardiola has won more - but you could easily argue that Mourinho has won more impressively (with regards to clubs managed).
Guardiolas teams have always played the better football - but then you could argue that Mourinho tends. for the most part, to get the best out of what he's got.
I think both have history of improving countless players and making them better and turning them into winners.
I think both should just be appreciated for being two of the greatest managers in football.
I think Pep’s teams would have won trophies with or without him.
You think the Utd squad that Mourinho had would have come second in the league and won the EL and League cup irrespective of who had been at the helm?I think the same with Mourinhos clubs.
Though let's see if he can create a miracle at Spurs.

NOT the question I asked you.I think United will win things in their future without Mourinho at the helm, yes.

Mourinho CL wins with Porto and Inter are more impressive than anything Pep has done. Pep took the Bayern team from Heynckes which was probably the most brutal machine around at the time (similar to the one now, maybe better) and downgraded them quite a bit, that was very disappointing what happened there. He has had the most talented team in the prem for a few years but keeps failing in the CL and it’s hard to judge his Barca time as he had the most insane talents around in Messi, Xavi and Iniesta.
I think Mourinho has a more impressive record than Pep but Pep plays more stylish football. I can say Pep’s style has had an enormous impact but his achievement relatively to the players/money he has had is reasonable rather than exceptional where as Mourinho has achieved more with less but his methods can be boring to say the least.
