Pep Guardiola says Manchester City are now dominating the Premier League like Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United.
Beat Aston Villa on Sunday and Pep Guardiola will secure his 10th championship from the 13 seasons he has been a manager with Barcelona, Bayern Munich and now Manchester City.
In two of the other campaigns he has been runner-up. The outlier was his first season at the Etihad in 2016/17 when he finished third.
"When I arrived, the people here said the Premier League is so difficult, it is the toughest one," says Guardiola. "Different teams would win, only Sir Alex Ferguson with United was able to take a lot of championships. When it happened you realised the magnitude of their achievement but now we are close to doing it, being part of that and we have to try to take it.
"A lot of work went on the first season when we didn't win. Of course it is great to be in the position we are now. It would be great to be champions again but we are here as a consequence of what happened in the past."
