Man City boss Guardiola: Liverpool now better than us

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says Liverpool are the team to beat after losing the Premier League summit to the Reds.

Defeat for City at Chelsea leaves the Reds one point clear of City after 16 games, and means Jurgen Klopp's side are now the only team left unbeaten in English football.

"We're not here to be invincibles, or to be unbeaten, we're here to try to be champions," Guardiola said. "It doesn't matter. We want to make one point more than our opponents.

"Now, at the moment, Liverpool are better than us.

"We are in December, if you ask if Liverpool can win the Premier League, I would say yes. If you ask me if Tottenham, Arsenal or Chelsea can with the Premier League, I would say yes."
