Pep Guardiola has refused to entertain talk of the quadruple but perhaps the question has been wrong all along. How about the quintuple? He and his Manchester City players are chasing three more trophies before the end of May and the quest continues at Tottenham in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday night.
But, as far as Guardiola is concerned, his team have already won two pieces of silverware this season – the Carabao Cup and, yes, the Community Shield, which they collected after a 2-0 win over Chelsea last August.
