It is not a foregone conclusion that Manchester City will win the Premier League title this season, according to former player and manager Peter Reid.

The Sky Blues defeated Manchester United 3-1 on Sunday, restoring their two point lead at the top of the table.

But Reid expects their to be more challenges ahead for Pep Guardiola's side.

"I don't believe this season's title race is a foregone conclusion," he wrote in the Daily Mail.

"Guardiola won't either. Football has proven too many times that hiccups happen.

"Jurgen Klopp, Maurizio Sarri and Mauricio Pochettino are all fantastic coaches with excellent teams and resources to compete.

"You can bet Jose Mourinho, a serial winner in his career, won't be taking this lightly... whatever he says publicly.

"This City team are exceptional but it's not over yet."
