Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has named Manchester United, Liverpool, Juventus, Real Madrid and Barcelona as teams his side cannot compete with.
Guardiola’s City has been the Premier League’s best over the past two years, clocking up 100 points in 2017/2018 and retaining the title last term as part of a treble-winning campaign.
However, they are already 14 points behind leader Liverpool after 16 games this season and have lost four times.
The latest of those losses came in a 2-1 reverse to rivals United in Saturday’s derby at the Etihad Stadium.
“We have to improve and accept it and move forward. Maybe we need to live that as a club to improve, to accept the reality now and improve,” Guardiola said, according to TeamTalk.
