Manchester City now feel theirs is a fight against humanity, which, according to Pep Guardiola, wants Liverpool to snatch the Premier League title from them. Everyone finds their own way to motivate themselves and that of the Premier League millionaires is now a quixotic.
What is a fact is that as the Premier League escapes him, he has a 3-point advantage over those led by Klopp and an eloquent goalscoring rhythm, with 94 goals, which will surely reach a hundred before the end of the season.
All they have to do is keep pace with their last five games: 3-0 Watford, 5-1 Watford, 4-0 Leeds, 5-0 Newcastle, 5-1 Wolverhampton.
And it is that while Liverpool demands not to lose track of him, City flourishes at the hands of one of its figures, Kevin De Bruyne, whose synthesis against Wolves is really stunning: 3 goals in 3 shots on goal, 94 percent in the effectiveness of his pass and all in just 25 minutes on the field. You really exaggerate.

But it is just the symptom of a trend that may already be irreversible for Liverpool, which still has the FA Cup final and the Champions League final on the horizon.
And it is that if the Premier finished now, nobody could argue with Manchester City that it is the best of the whole year: the team that scores the most goals, that receives the least, the most effective in precise passes and in possession… is the best throughout. Just check these numbers:

Manchester City knows that it has everything to win the Premier and, to tell the truth, it is almost an obligation to save one more season with millionaire investments (117 million euros for Grealish, for example) that has others disputing the titles that the Manchester City have. Qatari owners. Guardiola is all he has left. But he goes if he has plenty of merits to shout champion.
