Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has stated that Manchester City’s dream to win five successive premiership titles in a row could be dashed if his side loses to table-toppers, Liverpool next week Sunday.
Speaking to ESPN on Saturday after Manchester city’s fifth defeat in all competitions and third straight league game with a 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, Guardiola said an 11-point gap if City lose to Arne Slot’s team would be too much to overhaul even at this stage of the season.
The Reds Sunday afternoon went eight points clear after beating Southampton by 2-3.
When told that an 11-point gap could be too much to overcome, he replied: “Yeah, it’s true.“We’re not thinking about winning or losing [the title]. We are not in the situation to think about what is going to happen at the end of the season.
“If in the end we don’t win it’s because we don’t deserve it. We won it in the past because we deserved it.”
