After the victory over Newcastle, Manchester City will have a week without commitments, but they are already projecting a complicated sequence of matches starting next Saturday. Manager Pep Guardiola believes these upcoming fixtures – against Crystal Palace (English), RB Leipzig (Champions League) and Burnley (English) – will determine how the club handles the rest of the season.
“We have three games in six days in three different competitions and they will define our season,” Guardiola said on Saturday. “These matches against Palace, Leipzig and Burnley will define our season and what we can do for the rest of the season.”
Manchester City arrives confidently for a decisive stage and with a lot of pressure. Guardiola’s team has seven games without losing and three consecutive victories.
Regarding the victory over Newcastle this Saturday, Guardiola highlighted the difficulties that the rival imposed on Manchester City. “They are an exceptional team. We had problems at the beginning and then we got the goal that helped us a lot, in a brilliant action by Phil (Foden)”, explained the coach about the goal in the 16th minute of the first half – the other of the team was scored by Bernardo Silva.
