Manchester City midfielder Nico Gonsales shared his thoughts on the English Premier League title race.
He noted that if the team were told at the beginning of the season that they would be competing for the title with only five games remaining, the players would have gladly accepted. Now, the team is very close to achieving this goal:
"If we were told at the start of the season that we would be fighting for the title with 5 games left, we would have agreed. Now we are very close," Gonsales said.
At the same time, the player emphasized the need to focus on each game individually. According to him, the most important task is to prepare for the upcoming match against Burnley and move forward step by step:
"We need to focus all our attention on Burnley. We must progress towards our goal step by step," the player stated.
Gonsales expressed satisfaction with the team's overall condition and said that the title race is very interesting. He assessed the chances of the two teams as almost equal, i.e., 50-50:
"I think the chances are 50-50. It will be a very interesting battle until the end. I have full confidence in our team," the player told City Xtra.
For information, if Manchester City defeats Burnley, they will draw level with Arsenal in terms of points. In the previous round, the "citizens" defeated the Londoners 2-1.
