• ‘We’ll have to win every game, we know that’
Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City will have to win their remaining five Premier League games if they are to retain the title next month after watching his team maintain the pressure on Liverpool with a ninth successive victory.
The champions’ return to the top of the table extended to only a few hours on Sunday before Liverpool rescaled the summit with victory against Chelsea. City had eased to their own win at Crystal Palace to assuage any anxiety conjured by a rare defeat against Tottenham in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final, with their dominance in south London threatened only for a brief period near the end.
