Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was addressing his team’s current standing in the Premier League and their adjusted goals for the season. This context revolved around his assessment following a defeat to Liverpool, which left his team significantly behind the league leaders. Guardiola expressed the need for a more immediate focus on surpassing their closest rivals rather than aspiring for the title.
Pep Guardiola said “After the results in the past, to think about a big target [winning Premier League] would be a big mistake. We need to beat a team close to us and take advantage to be closer to the top four. We are not far away from being the second team in the league but it is all about consistency. Liverpool as a team have been magnificent and you just have to fight and win games. Step by step we have to move forward again.”
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta commented on Manchester City’s position in the Premier League title race despite their current challenges. He spoke about the inherent capability of Guardiola’s team to recover and perform, emphasizing that they should not be written off due to their history of success and high-quality management.
Mikel Arteta said “It is a team that has the capacity to turn this around and win, win, win and win. So don’t rule them out because you know how much quality and the coach that they have.”
