Manchester City football coach Pep Guardiola said today that he has a feeling that his team will defend the title in the Premier League.
“My feeling today is that we will win the Premier League. If we play like we did against Liverpool and Tottenham, we will be first again,” said Guardiola.
The defending champions have drawn their last three matches in the Premier League and are in third place in the table.
“People don’t believe in the title after three draws, but I feel we will be first again, knowing it’s not easy,” Guardiola said.
In the next round, City will host Aston Villa.
Two days ago, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has sent a warning and a plea to his club’s fans as he announces bad times at the Etihad.
Guardiola managed to make history with Manchester City by winning the treble last season, the three biggest competitions the club has played in (Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup). Only their rival Manchester United has managed to do that in history.
Now the Spanish expert announces the arrival of more difficult times. He said that “it is not normal to win so many trophies”, and sent a warning to the fans.
“We’ve won a lot, and in the future you have to understand that it was an exception. It’s not normal to win triple-crowns, five Premier League titles in six years… Keep enjoying yourself, but when the bad times come this season or next season, you have to be with us “, said the sincere Guardiola to his fans.
This news comes a few days after the “trial of the century” was scheduled in the world of football, as it was described by the English media. Manchester City will go to court on 115 counts of breaching financial fair play (FFP).
The two sides have agreed on a date for City to appear in court, which will happen in the fall of 2024. Whether these are the bad times that Guardiola mentions remains to be seen, Klix.ba reports.
