Two more wins. That’s all that separates Manchester City from becoming English champion for an unprecedented fourth straight year. The game is up, though, for Burnley, whose relegation from the Premier League was confirmed on Saturday with a game to spare. On a significant day at both ends of the standings, City racked up another big victory by routing Fulham 4-0 to climb above Arsenal into a two-point lead. The top two each have two games left, and Arsenal faces Manchester United next on Sunday. However Arsenal finishes the season, the title will be City’s if Pep Guardiola’s team beats both Tottenham away on Tuesday and West Ham at home in the final round on May 19. “My players like to play with pressure. They are used to it,” said Guardiola, whose team has won five of the last six Premier Leagues. “The players enjoy this feeling. “This season is the same — don’t think about anything other than the next game. Focus on winning the next game and then we will see what happens.” |
