Does Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola have it in him to resuscitate the club’s hopes of defending their Premier League title? The answer lies in City’s four successive triumphs to the title up until last season and his players’ confidence in him.

The Spaniard has been rivalled by the likes of Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool and Erik ten Hag at Manchester United. In a recent interview, Pep Guardiola appeared to take a jab at his former rival Klopp, who parted ways with Liverpool at the end of last season.

Even if we are in the Conference (League), I will be here to come back to the Premier League.
