Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has said he would have loved to be 10 points clear of their Premier League title rivals.
Guardiola made the comment during his Friday press conference, ahead of their trip to Nottingham Forest.
If City win in Saturday’s early kick-off at the City Ground, they will go top of the table.
City are currently in second place, two points behind leaders Arsenal and only one ahead of third-placed Aston Villa.
“I’d prefer to be 10 points clear of everyone, but it is what it is. Arsenal’s doing really well but we are there. We’re still in the end of December. In the Champions League, we are up there and Premier League we are there, Carabao Cup semi-finals, we start the FA Cup soon,” Guardiola said.
