Man City boss Guardiola: We know many will say title is over

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says his players won't relax being clear at the top of the table.

After victory over Chelsea, Guardiola is confident his players will remain focused as they move 13 points clear.

“They will do it," he said at his post-match press conference. “I know them.

“We were together for six seasons and most of them I know incredibly well and how competitive they are and how they celebrate the good moments and how they suffer the bad ones, how we behave this year in all the games, even when we lose.

“Of course, people will say it's over. They [City players] know it's not over. In January it's not possible.

“At the same time, we have had had 12 games in a row winning, winning, winning. To do 36 points in this league, hats off to these players so far.

“But, it's January. It's not just the Premier League. It's the Champions League, the FA Cup, there are many titles still to play for."
