Manchester United and Liverpool, according to Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, are the most important clubs in Premier League history.
The Manchester City manager said this while asserting that the entire country of England wants Liverpool to win the Premier League this season.
He said, “Liverpool alongside [Manchester] United are the most important teams in history in terms of titles, legacies, history, dramas, for many, many things.”
However, the former Barcelona manager claimed that Manchester City has been able to reach to the top of the English Premier League ladder and that his team’s position in the last 10,11,12 years has made some people unhappy, saying, “but I don’t care.”
Even if it appears that Liverpool has more fans and that many people want them to win more than City, Guardiola claims that City has more fans all around the world than the Reds.
He said, “But this is not the question, the question is: today, before the start of the game, the people cheering and supporting us more than ever in a home game because they know, even being out of the Champions League, we can rely on these players.
“The support was amazing and hopefully we can arrive in the last game here with the chance to be champions.”
