“That’s really good news. I have said many times that that is the most important goal. We did it with 4 matches left in the season. Congratulations to the club and the players,” the Spanish coach affirmed.

“Last season, we struggled against Nottingham last season despite creating many chances. We were lucky with the pitch being dry. With the opportunities that Nottingham has, with better ground conditions, they will score.

Man City was extremely lucky for that. We also had difficulties, but when Mateo Kovacic came on the field in the second half and Bernardo Silva participated in the development of the ball, we played much better,” 

Pep said.

Commenting on the title race, Man City captain expressed:  “I don’t think Arsenal will lose any points in the rest of this season. It’s like what happened to Liverpool before. We have four games left and it’s like climbing a big mountain. If we draw one match, we will not be able to win the tournament.”
