Pep Guardiola: Manchester City have won the Premier League this season

DBasia.news – Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola was reluctant to speak even though he now leads the Premier League standings comfortably. The Spaniard hasn’t even crossed Liverpool from the list of winning candidates.

Manchester City won an important victory when they traveled to Liverpool headquarters at the weekend. The Citizens successfully silenced the defending champion with a striking score of 4-1.

The victory confirmed Manchester City’s position at the top of the standings. They are five points ahead with one game savings from Manchester United who are ranked second.

In contrast, the minor results against Manchester City has made Liverpool swallow three successive defeats at home. The position of Jurgen Klopp’s team is even prone to being thrown out of the top four.

Even so, Guardiola thinks Liverpool has a great opportunity to rise. He has not been able to forget the slick performance of the Reds over the past season.

“Liverpool remain one of the best teams I have seen in my life and are capable of making an incredible 68 match unbeaten run at home. They crushed opponents, won by a huge margin, won at the last minute for three seasons without a defeat, “said Guardiola as quoted from Goal.

“We don’t know why they lost three times in a row. Don’t you think it could happen to us? Of course it could.”

From this statement, Guardiola seemed to be trying to warn his players to stay focused. He certainly doesn’t want Manchester City to follow in the footsteps of his competitors who have slipped.

Moreover, Manchester City have already been awaited by three tough opponents, namely Tottenham Hotspur, Everton and Arsenal. The three of them will consecutively try to stop the winning trend of Raheem Sterling and his team mates.
