 After the Wolves games against Manchester City on Friday, where City lost 3-2 to the Wolves, City boss Pep Guardiola admits that this time, indeed, the hopes of winning the Premier League title are slim.

When asked if the title race is truly over with, Guardiola said:

“The advantage is too big, yes.”

This year Manchester City have been defeated five times in the Premier League games – which is more than the entire of 2018-19.

Their rivals Liverpool have caught up in an unbelievable recovery from last year and Pep Guardiola definitely feels the pressure looming up. As of now, Liverpool have only given away 2 points this season and have won 26 out of 27 Premier League games.

“It’s unrealistic to think about Liverpool, we think about Leicester,” Guardiola added. “We have the chance to recover second place. I know the quality of my team but that’s the situation.”

Winger Bernardo Silva added: “It is a really bad situation for us. A frustrating first half of the season. Nobody expected us to be this far away from Liverpool at this halfway point.

“We have to continue now. We know that winning the title is very complicated. I wouldn’t say impossible but very difficult.”

Currently, City are third in the table, one point below Leicester City and 14 points behind Liverpool.
