Pep Guardiola challenges his team to emulate dominance of big European teams
Manchester City Pep Guardiola believes his team should look to the benchmark set by some of the European heavyweights Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Juventus.
The Spaniard said these three teams have been the best teams in the past decade, with dominance in their respective leagues and also in Europe.
City thumped Burnley 5-0 in the FA Cup fourth round to keep them on course to win every competition this season. They are four points behind leaders Liverpool in the league, a Carabao Cup final to contest against Chelsea and a Champions League last-16 tie against Schalke next month.
When asked about winning multiples trophies in a season, Pep replied: “I know you are so generous and thank you so much guys, but every time you make that comment we lose a competition.
“It’s important now that at the end of January we are still there. At the big clubs, that is the big difference.
“I’ve said many times: who are the best teams in the last decade? Juventus, Bayern Munich, Barcelona. These are the three best teams in Europe. Why? Because every season they win the league, every season they win the cups, every season they are there. Because they are the best.”
Manchester City visit Newcastle United tomorrow for their league game.
