Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has insisted that his players are determined to wrestle the three points from Man United at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The champions have wobbled this season and have currently surrendered the Premier League leadership to Tottenham.

In a chat with TribalFootball, the Spanish tactician stated that nothing but three points will be positive result for the team.

‘I want to see how is our mentality on Sunday at Old Trafford.

“We have won a lot, it is not about whether we win, what is going to happen? I want to see my team prove they have the right mentality you need to win these games.

“Ask me when there are nine games left if Man United are contenders. But now, so many things are going to happen.”

He also stated: ” ll the teams are there. Some teams that are a bit behind can get back.

“When you play just nine game, many things are going to happen still.

“We have been behind in February and March and still been able to win.”

On facing United, Guardiola said: “It’s OK – it’s a good rivalry. No big issues have happened – I am eight seasons here as manager and there have been no big issues. We have won games and lost games, but nothing bad has happened.

“We won the Treble [repeating Manchester United’s achievement under Sir Alex Ferguson in the 1998-99 season] – for us it was so important for us as a side to arrive in Istanbul with the chance to do that (by beating United in the FA Cup final).”
