Pep Guardiola believes emulating Manchester United’s treble winners is possible – as long as his Manchester City squad remain calm.
The City boss admitted the Premier League champions were anxious in the second half of Monday’s goalless draw at Crystal Palace, with Liverpool subsequently closing the gap to a single point.
It makes for a tantalising final two months of the run-in, with Guardiola refusing to shirk the prospect of either challenger achieving a feat first set by United in 1999.
‘We are in control,’ Guardiola said.
