“Fighting for the Champions League Isn’t the Worst Thing” – Guardiola on City’s Tough Season
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has opened up about his team’s rough season and couldn’t resist throwing a light jab at rivals Manchester United.
City, who usually dominate the Premier League, have struggled this time around. They’re no longer in the title race and are battling just to secure a Champions League spot. Right now, they sit in fifth place, with Aston Villa and Chelsea close behind.
Ahead of their upcoming match against Everton, Guardiola told reporters that while the situation isn’t ideal, it could be a lot worse. “Fighting for the Champions League isn’t the worst thing,” he said. “It shows we’ve done some things right over the last few months. People say we’re fourth, but it could’ve easily been 11th, 12th, 13th, or 14th.”
That final remark seemed aimed at United, who are sitting in 14th place after losing 14 out of their 32 games this season.
Captain of the Morocco national team, Achraf Hakimi, has shared his thoughts on the controversial topic surrounding AFCON 2025.
It can be noted that the team was accused of taking towels belonging to opposition goalkeepers during matches, which sparked criticism from fans and observers, with many calling for consequences.
Hakimi expressed his disappointment over the situation, stating “I don’t feel proud about the image we gave off with the towels. Even though that happened, the team did well in the competition. We showed respect for our opponents in the tournament.”
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.

Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
Young Arsenal player Max Dowman is making headlines after reaching a major milestone—becoming the youngest player to feature in the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
