Despite Manchester City’s victory over Arsenal this week, Pep Guardiola emphasizes that the Premier League title race is still ongoing.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has asserted that the Premier League title race is far from over, despite his side’s decisive victory over Arsenal this week.
Following their emphatic 4-1 win over the Gunners at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday, City now sit just two points behind the league leaders with two games in hand.
However, Guardiola is refusing to get carried away with his team’s recent successes and has underlined the importance of staying focused for the remainder of the season.
“We still have seven games left,” the Spanish tactician said during a recent press conference. “Every single game we play for special things, for our opponents and ourselves. We have to do our game.”
Despite City’s recent form, Guardiola has been keen to maintain a level-headed approach and downplayed any notions of complacency within his squad. “It’s been normal as usual, nothing special,” he stated. “We make a recovery training session. Today is a day off, so nothing special.”
As the title race heats up and the season enters its crucial final stages, Guardiola will be looking to maintain his team’s momentum and push for silverware. With the likes of Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland in fine form, City will be hoping to continue their winning streak and secure yet another Premier League title.
