Guardiola delivers verdict on Man City season ahead of cup final

Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City have enjoyed a “really, really good” season even if they fall short in the Premier League title race with Arsenal.

City are two points behind the leaders with just two games remaining, meaning they need the Gunners to drop points if they are to have any chance of finishing top of the table.

Even if they miss out on a seventh league title in the Guardiola era, City can still end the campaign with two trophies if they can beat Chelsea in the FA Cup final this Sunday to add to their League Cup win.

Pep Guardiola delivers ‘really good’ verdict on Man City season

Asked if the season can be considered a success should Man City win two domestic trophies but fail to finish to pip Arsenal to the Premier League, Guardiola answered: “It depends on the trophies you lift. Sometimes you lift trophies and the season has been successful.

“Sometimes, you lift and the truth is the season has been really, really bad.

“I said a few weeks ago this season has been good. Really, really good.”
