Nothing is forever, as far as Pep Guardiola is concerned. Despite overseeing the most successful period in Manchester City’s history, the Spanish tactician is aware that his achievements are against the norm. In a recent press conference, Guardiola revealed his thoughts on City’s staggering success and why it is not wise to expect them to maintain the same level of performance in the future.

Manchester City currently sit 2nd in the Premier League table behind Arsenal. Despite playing impressive games, the Sky Blues are not getting their deserved appreciation. It seems Guardiola himself is toning down the incredible expectations placed on his team.

Pep Guardiola gives his honest take on Manchester City’s achievements
