Guardiola on the title race: I love being here again

Pep Guardiola says he is relishing another Premier League title race at Manchester City despite Arsenal holding the advantage with three games remaining.

City moved two points behind Arsenal by beating Brentford 3-0 thanks to goals from Jeremy Doku, Erling Haaland and Omar Marmoush.

And asked if he is enjoying how this season has panned out, he said: “I love it. I love to be here again.

“Finish minimum second again this season, so I love to be here.

“I didn’t enjoy last season, in that moment we are fighting to qualify for the Champions League, it was so difficult.

“The Carabao Cup is in our pockets, we play the final of the FA Cup at Wembley. It’s the most beautiful game of the season. We live it many times and it’s so beautiful.

When you arrive there, fighting against Arsenal, being there after all the time and many changes that happened, the spirit of the team, how they help each other, in every training session. I saw it behind the scenes, it’s a joy to work with them, how they fight, the experienced players.

“It’s not in our hands now, so they have to drop points, but the only thing we can do is Wednesday win again, play the final of the FA Cup, which in this moment is not the best place to go, . Our calendar is really, really demanding.
