Pep Guardiola has dismissed talk of a potential treble despite Manchester City requiring a maximum of 13 victories to win the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League
Pep Guardiola has dismissed talk of a potential treble despiterequiring a maximum of 13 victories to claim the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League.
On Saturday City would reach the FA Cup final if Sheffield United are beaten at Wembley. Should they win their remaining eight league matches, the title would be retained, and next month Guardiola’s side have a Champions League semi-final with Real Madrid.When Guardiola was asked about the possibility of City winning the treble he referenced the fact that only Manchester United, in 1999, have achieved the feat. “I’ll talk to you about it after we have won the FA Cup and Premier League,” he said.
“Before the final of the Champions League we will start to talk of the treble. Look how far away it is. We are far, far away. How many times in this amazing country have trebles been done? How many years? How many teams? “It is one. Once. Our neighbours did it in how many centuries? The best thing is to focus on if we have enough legs for tomorrow to compete against Sheffield United. Am I excited about the treble? Not at all.”
