What did Guardiola say about the title race in the Premier League?

Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola expressed his thoughts on the current state and goals of his team as the fight for the English championship heats up.

As is known, the "City" is currently in second place in the Premier League table, two points behind the leaders Arsenal. However, Guardiola openly said that he does not perceive this situation as a tragedy.

"Of course, I would like to be 10 points ahead of everyone. But the reality is that now. Arsenal are playing at a very high level, we must admit that. Despite this, we are not out of the championship race. It is only the end of December, and the season is very long," the specialist said.

The Spanish coach also emphasized that the team is competitive on all fronts. According to him, Manchester City are also fighting for the top spots in the Champions League, have reached the semi-finals of the League Cup and will soon start their journey in the FA Cup.

"The most important thing is that our key players are gradually returning to the team. Therefore, we will move forward step by step, without rushing," concluded Guardiola.

This statement once again confirms that Manchester City will remain a serious contender for the championship until the end of the season.
