Pep Guardiola says his players winning the Carabao Cup three successive times is an “incredible” achievement.

City have now won eight trophies during the Catalan’s silverware-laden reign – two Premier League titles, three Carabao Cups, one FA Cup and two Community Shields – all in the past three years.

As ever, he heaped praise on his players after their latest Wembley triumph.

“Three times in a row is a big success,” said Pep.

“It’s the consistency, incredible. It was awesome.

“We struggled in the first minutes and the last ones.

“They had two clear chances in the first minutes but we played really well, especially in the second half. 

“The game was good. Phil (Foden) was clinical. Big success, our second title of the season with the Community Shield, it’s so nice.

“We’ve won a lot. I tried when we arrive, every game we play we try to win it, every competition we try to win it, and three times in a row, being here and winning is great.”
