Guardiola – City will go four it next season

Pep Guardiola will launch another attempt to win the quadruple with Manchester City next season after missing out this time around. City’s bid to win four trophies – a feat never achieved in English football – came to an agonising end as Tottenham edged them out in a thrilling Champions League quarter-final in midweek.

The Citizens now switch focus back to the Premier League but their battle for top spot with Liverpool remains tight as they prepare for another critical clash with Spurs at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. Liverpool and Spurs may have been helped in their challenges in these competitions by early exits from one or both of the domestic cup competitions.

However, Guardiola, who has guided City to Carabao Cup success and reached the FA Cup final this season, has no intention of easing up on any front next year. The City boss said: “I don’t understand in my profession saying I don’t want to win.

If I lose it’s because the opponent beat me or beat us. “I’m not going to drop any competitions because maybe in the future it will be better. Who knows what’s going to happen in the future? “The present is this game and I will try. I will dream next season of fighting for the four titles, that’s my dream.”
