Pep: Will the urban defeat win the Liverpool Street title? We are still in September!

Norwich - Manchester City's defeat will erase Liverpool's victory in the 2019/20 Premier League. The city director, Pep Guardiola, rejected this idea.

The city suffered a shock defeat when visiting the headquarters of the Norwich City promotion team on Saturday (09/14/2019). Playing on Carrow Road, the defending champion fell with a final score of 2-3.

Negative results that make the distance of the city with Liverpool widened to five points in the Premier League standings. The city currently ranks second with a collection of 10 points in five matches, less than the Reds who are always perfect with 15 points.

Liverpool will again become the main rival of citizens in the title race this season. Last season, the Reds looked impressive to compete with City until last week despite losing one point. However, Liverpool is more consistent than City because he only lost 38 matches.

Guardiola believes that City have performed well despite having to recognize the benefits of Norwich. However, Guardiola refused if this defeat was very important against the competition against Liverpool.

"We're still in September, okay?" Guardiola said in the subway. "Congratulations, Liverpool, you won ... We are still in September, what do you have to do? We will recover, train and improve."

"We lost five points, Tottenham, we played very well, and today, in important moments, we need to know exactly what to do."

In the sixth week, City will host Watford at Etihad (21/09). While Liverpool will come to the headquarters of Chelsea (09/22).
