“I don’t care.” Pep Guardiola shares his thoughts on the title race with Arsenal
Arsenal dropped points a few days ago with a draw against Wolverhampton, opening the door for Manchester City to close the gap on the Gunners. Pep Guardiola was asked about the situation.
Details: The City boss responded that his full focus is on the upcoming clash with Newcastle. He revealed that there have been no discussions with his players about the title race.
Quote: “The Premier League title battle with Arsenal? I haven’t spoken about it for a single second with my players. Yesterday and the day before it was only Newcastle, Newcastle and Newcastle again. I didn’t talk about the table, I didn’t talk about our position. I didn’t care,” Guardiola stated.
Manchester City currently sit second in the table with 53 points from 26 matches, five points behind Arsenal. Up next is a showdown with Newcastle on Saturday, 21 February, kicking off at 21:00 CET.
Reminder: After the Gunners failed to overcome the team sitting bottom of the league and were ultimately held to a draw, Polymarket analysts reported a sharp drop in their odds of winning the title.
