Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has said his team can’t take their foot off the gas, as they’re still fighting for the league.

City will play Real Madrid next month in the Champions League, but Guardiola has said he isn’t thinking of that fixture yet.

According to Guardiola, Madrid can afford to rotate players because they are far behind Barcelona and won’t win the La Liga.

“When you are 10 or 15 points behind the leader, you can prioritise the Champions League,” Guardiola said.

“We don’t have time to prioritise anything. The Premier League is so attractive, so nice. People say why, it’s not true but the Premier League is the Premier League, it’s 11 months, every week. My attention is Fulham then West Ham then Leeds. After Leeds, not much time but we have time to prepare for Madrid.”
