Pep Guardiola has expressed relief at Manchester City's standing in the Premier League, currently fifth, contrasting it with Manchester United's troubles, who sit 17 points behind. Despite City's poor performance earlier in the season with nine defeats in 19 matches, he believes they could have been lower in the table. Guardiola also shared his enjoyment of recent Champions League games, reflecting on the competitiveness of the tournament. Despite being knocked out, he appreciates the thrill of high-stakes matches.
We could be 11th, 12th, 13th or 14th. I don't have any doubts of that. I take it like 'OK, [we've] not been good', but [qualification is] in our hands.
I enjoyed this week's Champions League quarter-final second legs, calling them 'really, really nice games'. Sometimes you don't perform well and you don't deserve to be [there].
