Man City captain Walker: We want to make history here

Manchester City's chance to win an unprecedented fourth straight Premier League title is driving them to glory this season.

The Citizens may have won the treble last term, but Kyle Walker admits there are other goals to chase.

Now they want to go a step further than any other team, win the top flight four times in a row.

“It's exciting to be involved in - as a player, it's what you want to play in - relishing these opportunities and these rivalries," the City skipper stated after a 1-1 draw with Liverpool.

“This is why this is the best league in the world - players want to come here, to play and compete in this league.

“We came to [Anfield to] win and put a stance on the Premier League, but the Premier League is not decided by today. There's so much football and key, important games to play.

“We've not lost here - we go into the big period now after the international break and try to clinch these four Premier Leagues in a row.

“It's great for the Premier League - to have three teams so close, at the top of their game with great players, it's a great spectacle.

“We need to make sure we're there and fighting until the end as we always do. To win three Premier Leagues in a row is fantastic but to do four which no one has ever done, that's what we are striving for - that's our hunger.

“There's a lot of football to be played and there's going to be a lot of twist and turns - as there always is throughout every season. We need to make sure they go in our favor and we're at the top. We'll keep fighting."
