​Man City manager Guardiola: We must win trophies to become big club

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola explains what his side need to do in order to become a big club.

City have been utterly dominant in every competition so far this season and while they have been receiving universal praise, Guardiola has stated that his side need to win trophies in order to cement their place as a big club.

Guardiola said: "A win helps to win more, then we are there, going to go to London to play the final. It's important (to win trophies). To become a big club like the teams I have faced, or teams like (Manchester) United or Liverpool, with a really big history, you have to win.

"Nobody can take away what we have lifted so far - the pleasures from this team of the last three or four months, they belong to us. In the process, when you live in good moments, I say to the players, 'Enjoy it'. It is so complicated it may not happen again.

"But after, of course, to give real value to what we have done so far, what we are going to do in the future, you have to lift the titles. Without that, it's OK, it's good, but not enough."
