Asked on Monday about Manchester United’s chances of competing with Manchester City, Pep Guardiola simply responded with a laugh.
Solid leader of the Premier League with five victories in as many matches, Manchester City is preparing to begin the difficult exercise of retaining the title of European champion won last year. Present at a press conference on the eve of this meeting, Pep Guardiola was asked about the Premier League and the possibilities of retaining their title of champion of England, since there are currently three teams which are two small points behind the Cityzens (Tottenham, Liverpool and Arsenal).

It must be said that with three defeats in five matches and a sad 13th place, the Red Devils seem far from the level required to be able to claim the title of champion of England and even a place in the top 5. “They didn’t start the way they would have liked, like Chelsea. But they will eventually find their rhythm”he then added.
