Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says the title race is wide open after victory over Fulham.
Raheem Sterling's close-range finish and a Kevin de Bruyne penalty made it back-to-back wins for City, who were vastly superior to their opponent but also wasteful in front of goal.
Having struggled for consistency so far this season, City are now three points behind the leagues joint leaders, Tottenham and reigning champions Liverpool.
Guardiola said, "In my first season, Chelsea dominated and the next three were us and Liverpool, we controlled the league.
"But Leicester came here and scored five goals and then this week lost against Fulham, who we've just beaten. It is like how the Premier League was, everyone can beat everyone.
"The important thing is to be in there.
"In this month, it was important to focus on qualification in the Champions League and now we focus on the Premier League. It will be a long, long season for all the clubs."
