Champions League is getting tougher to win: EPL top coach

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has opined that the Uefa Champions League has become difficult to win.

He made this comment at a time when Man City are looking to claim a second consecutive Treble this season.

Guardiola and his Man City squad will host FC Copenhagen in the second leg of their last-16 tie on Wednesday, having won the first leg 3-1.

“It’s better to be here having already won the Champions League but as I said it (the treble season) is finished,” he said.

“The only target is to try to qualify tomorrow for the quarter-finals. We are far, far away, talking about these things.

“We didn’t say last season until we won the final against United in the FA Cup, so we are at the beginning of March,” Guardiola told reporters on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, the Citizens are also favourites to win the Premier League title this season.
