The Catalan has dominated the Premier League during his seven years in England, winning five titles amongst a haul of 16 major honours.
This year’s title race sees us clashing with Liverpool and Arsenal, while the likes of Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa battle it out for Champions League slots.
Guardiola gives De Bruyne update
There has been suggestion that sixth-placed Manchester United could soon compete for the biggest prizes again.
Asked about the potential for our local rivals to be title challengers in future seasons, Guardiola insisted he was only interested in making sure City are part of the fight for every piece of silverware.
“What I want is Man City, my team, to be there. The rest I don’t care,” he said in his pre-match press conference ahead of Saturday’s trip to Bournemouth.
“We want to be there. With Ole [Gunnar Solskjaer] and Jose Mourinho they were second. They have been there, maybe not as close as Liverpool.
“Always I expect since day one that United will be there. It didn’t happen. The reason why I don’t know but it’s their business not ours. We want to be there for ourselves.”
