City close in on title but Pep complains everyone wants Liverpool to win it
PEP GUARDIOLA claimed the entire country wants Liverpool to win the Premier League title.
Manchester City went three points clear of Jurgen Klopp’s side by hammering Newcastle United 5-0 at the Etihad Stadium yesterday.
The defending champions will claim a fourth title in five years if they win their remaining three matches — starting at Wolves on Wednesday — and Guardiola believes that will upset the nation.
‘Everyone in this country supports Liverpool, the media and everyone,’ Guardiola said. ‘Because Liverpool have an incredible history in European competitions. Not in Premier Leagues, because they have won one in 30 years.
‘But I don’t care. People want Liverpool to win more than us. They have more supporters around the world and in England
more support Liverpool than us.’
