Is it sincere or is it an outright murder?

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola. He said he was “99.9%” confident the team would not win a second successive treble.

This was at a press conference held the day before the 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) home game against Everton on the 10th (9:30 p.m., Korean time).

If Manchester City defeats Everton on this day, it will take the sole lead with 16 wins, 4 draws, 3 losses, and 52 points, overtaking Liverpool (15 wins, 6 draws, 2 losses, and 51 points). Manchester City is currently two points behind Liverpool with one less game played.

Manchester City has advanced to the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League and the 5th round of the FA Cup. With recent momentum, it may be worth aiming for a treble again.

Last season, Manchester City became the second English team to achieve the treble, following Manchester United in the 1998-1999 season.

However, Coach Guardiola shook his head about the possibility of becoming the first English team to achieve back-to-back treble records.

“This is a fairy tale, and it is more complicated. We will try to beat Everton and see what happens. There is a 99.99% chance that we will not achieve the treble. Because no one has ever achieved it before. If it were easy, another team, at that time Manchester United, would have done it again. Uneasy."

“Everything is too difficult and what we have done in the past does not guarantee anything,” Guardiola said.

Manchester City recently gained momentum with the return of injured Kevin De Bruyne, Erling Haaland, and John Stones, and recently extended their winning streak to 9 games with a 3-1 win over Brentford.

However, in this clash, Everton is aiming for its first away win since 2010. In response, Coach Guardiola told his team’s players to “be careful.”

“Even if we won the last five (EPL) games, there is no guarantee that we can win the next game. We have to do it again.”
