Pep Guardiola Claims Man City Have to 'Win Every Game' But Insists Title Is in Their Hands

Pep Guardiola claimed that Manchester City will have to win all of their remaining Premier League games if they are to retain their title after Sunday's 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace.

Raheem Sterling's brace and a late strike from Gabriel Jesus saw the Citizens comfortably past Roy Hodgson's side at Selhurst Park, before Liverpool maintained their own title charge with victory over Chelsea later on Sunday.

The Reds' victory took them back above City at the top of the table, though the champions have a game in hand on their rivals. As quoted by the Guardian, Guardiola admitted after the game: "We'll have to win every game if we want to make back-to-back titles, we know that and the players have shown they want to do it.
