Pep Guardiola convinced lower points total will win Premier League this season

“We’ll learn from this and we’ll improve. I’m fine. I still have energy. I wanted to win (on Saturday). Congratulations to Bournemouth is all I can say.”

RACE IS ON: Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola thinks it will take fewer points to win the title this year compared to recent seasons.

Pep Guardiola believes fewer points will be required to win the Premier League this season due to increased physical demands on players.

Manchester City became the first team in English top-flight history to reach 100 points in 2017/18 and three more times under Guardiola have broken the 90-point barrier.
