Man City boss Guardiola: Title race between FIVE teams

Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola believes they are in a huge battle for the league title.

The Citizens trail arch rivals Liverpool in a bid to win the league yet again, after winning the Treble last term.

But Guardiola believes the Premier League title is more than a three-horse race.

“I think it's not just three," said the manager in his post-match press conference, speaking of the Reds and Arsenal.

“Tottenham are still there, Aston Villa are still there. It can change.

“My feeling when I see Arsenal playing, they control many aspects of the game and it's quite similar with Liverpool.

“When you see the games, every game they are better than their opponent.

“They can lose games, of course, but they are better.

“I know how strong they are but still we are there and we want to continue.

“We are there and the important thing is we are there.

“We did our job and now we recover and go to a place to face a team [Brentford] who last season we couldn't take one point.

“Always for us they have been really tough. One game at a time and we'll see what happens."
