"You saw Jurgen Klopp's celebration at the end of the win over West Ham and it was telling. But a lot of games to play - we will see where we end up." OK, we couldn't cope with it last year for obvious reasons, but in the other years we were around. We pushed each other on insane levels in the last few years, with the number of points collected. If City were not here I think there's a good chance we would be champions." then City would have been champions in February"

How the mighty United have fallen: Man City remain in control of Premier League title race by showing they are everything Man United are not.
Where United have chopped and changed, City have enjoyed the stability of having Guardiola in charge for the last six years. That's what United lacked at the Etihad, and not for the first time this season. The likes of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire wouldn't come close to City's squad, but their collective transfer fees amount to a staggering £165 million, so it's not as if United have done anything on the cheap in recent years. It is a statistical anomaly that United had won four of their previous seven games against City prior to this defeat, but those victories never amounted to anything tangible. Neville said United "finished like an absolute shower" and "were a disgrace in the last 25 minutes," while Keane accused Ralf Rangnick's players of a "shameful" performance. But those days are gone and Guardiola said after this game that United's decline is a warning to City and all other clubs who think their dominance will never end.
