EPL: Guardiola names 4 clubs that can challenge Man City for title

Manchester City head coach, Pep Guardiola, has named four clubs that could challenge his team for the Premier League title this season.

Guardiola’s side are widely regarded as the favorite to retain the Premier League title this season despite Arsenal’s strong start to the campaign.

Man City are currently in the second position on the Premier League table behind leaders Arsenal.

However, Guardiola believes the likes of Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Liverpool are all in the title race.

“Arsenal is already there, many years [they] weren’t there,” Guardiola said as quoted by Manchester Evening News ahead of Man City’s clash with Liverpool on Sunday evening.

“Patient with Mikel [Arteta], he changed not just the team, he changed the club. A fact is a contender, Tottenham will be there, Chelsea and Liverpool as well.”

“What happened the previous seasons, Liverpool, Jurgen [Klopp] might not see it now, but I always see them as a contender.

“If two months left. I’d say maybe too late. Just one-quarter of the season. Lots of games to play, many things can happen.”
