Man City boss Guardiola insists games in hand count for little

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola insists having games in hand counts for little in the Premier League race.

Despite going into Sunday's match at Chelsea on the back of a six-game unbeaten run and with two games in hand on most clubs around them in the table, he is cautious about talk of winning a third league title.

"If you think about what [can] happen in January, February - the two games [in hand], we can lose these two games and anything can happen," he said.

"So, in the Premier League, every game is so tough and it is better to be calm. The real Premier League, the people I spoke to before I landed here, said everyone can lose to everyone. I didn't see this until now.

"Now is the first time when I see in the Premier League, one team is able to lose or win seven, and after draw, and after lose. The results are unpredictable."
