EPL: Guardiola Takes Swipe Liverpool, Says ‘Everybody In England, Even Media, Supports them

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has taken a swipe at Jurgen Klopp and his Liverpool side.

City are now three points ahead of their Premier League title rivals after their 5-0 thrashing of Newcastle United on Sunday.

Liverpool’s title hope was dealt a huge blow on Saturday after the Reds were held to a 1-1 draw by fourth-placed fighters, Tottenham.

Guardiola said that everyone in England, including the media, supports Liverpool.

With three games left to play, Pep Guardiola’s men are now heavy favourites to retain their crown.

After the game on Sunday, Guardiola was asked how it feels to have re-taken control of the title race and the Spaniard chose to go off on a tangent about how much support he feels Liverpool have received in the title race.

“Well one week ago, even when we were in front, nobody [was saying that],” he told beIN Sports.

“Everyone in this country supports Liverpool, the media and everyone.

“Of course because Liverpool has an incredible history behind them, in European competitions. Not in the Premier League, because they’ve won one in 30 yearbooks.

“But it’s not a problem at all. The situation is what it is.”

Arsenal legend, Paul Merson, has handed his old club two signings to make in the summer.

Merson wants Arsenal to sign Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez and a new midfielder.

“I would get a centre forward this summer, I would go for Julian Alvarez,” Merson said on The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast.

“I am a big fan. If they could get him, I would. I still think they probably need another midfield player as well.”

Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney, has picked the Red Devils defender Luke Shaw as the most improved player in the Premier League following the conclusion of the 2025/26 season.

Speaking on his BBC podcast, Rooney said, “I think, for me, Luke Shaw. I think Luke Shaw has been the most improved player this season.

“I know he is an experienced player now, but I think his level this season has been much better than it has been in recent seasons.

“People might look at Kobbie Mainoo but I don’t think he’s improved. It was just the fact he wasn’t playing under the former manager so it wasn’t good or bad.”

Shaw enjoyed one of his most consistent seasons at Man United and started all of Man United’s Premier League games.
