Pep Guardiola Aiming For Historic Quadruple This Season

Manchester City are going strong in all three competitions even after winning the Carabo Cup for a consecutive time last month.

While a double was achieved by Pep Guardiola last season, the Spaniard is aiming for all 4 trophies this term.

Speaking about the Citizens’ ambitions for this campaign, he said,  “We are privileged to be in all the competitions almost at the beginning of April and to fight for the title. It’s an incredible experience.

“I don’t know how many teams in Premier League history have been in this position fighting for four titles. We are and it’s nice and it’s good.

“I think they are fresh mentally and in the legs and we are going to try.”

City are due to face off against Tottenham Hotspur in the quarterfinals of the Champions League and against Brighton & Hove Albion in the FA Cup semi-final. Guardiola further added,  “I think it’s good sense to think about going out there and thinking if we don’t win we are not going to win the competition. Play with this kind of pressure.

“Anything can happen in 90 minutes but there’s just one option – win the game. That’s all.”

While winning is a realistic possibility for the Premier League winners, Guardiola knows a thing or two about managing expectations. He continued, “Maybe we cannot win but if that happens it’s because the opponent is better, or because Liverpool was incredibly good and we cannot chase them.

“It’s still in our hands. We win all games and we’ll be champions.

“I’m not saying it’s going to be easy. Honestly, maybe with the amount of games we have, with these fixtures, we will drop points.”
