Manchester City, on a high after their resounding victory over Bayern Munich in the Champions League, return to the Premier League this weekend with the visit of Leicester to the Etihad Stadium.
It’s a match that, according to Pep Guardiola, sees as crucial for his team’s chances in the domestic championship, with several rounds of the league still remaining.
“If we lose tomorrow we will not be champions,” Guardiola said in a brutal confession.
It was a surprise, particularly taking into account that they have played a game less than Arsenal, the leader of the Premier League.
Praise for Brighton
“The reality is that we are six points behind, nobody guarantees that we will win our remaining game against the best team in the world at building the game, the best team is Brighton,” Guardiola reflected.
“There is no other team that does the process of getting the ball into the final quarter of the pitch better, there is no better team in modern football right now.”
Speculation on Jude Bellingham
During the press conference he was questioned about the English player who plays for Borussia Dortmund, Jude Bellingham.
He refused to answer anything about the midfielder, asking his press colleague that questions should be better prepared, especially when you know what answer you are going to give.
“Next one,” the coach responded.
