According to Roy Keane, Manchester City is the clear favorite to win the Premier League title this season. After their recent 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest, Keane is convinced that City will continue their winning streak and lift the trophy. The game started off well for Forest, but the tide turned in the 32nd minute when Josko Gvardiol scored a powerful header. In the second half, substitute Erling Haaland secured the victory for City with another goal.
The win brought City within a point of league leaders Arsenal, who narrowly beat Tottenham 3-2 earlier that day. However, City still has a game in hand over Arsenal, which gives them an advantage in the title race. Despite not playing their best at the City Ground, City showed their determination and resilience by digging deep for the win. Pep Guardiola, City's head coach, refused to declare his team as favorites for the title, stating that anything can happen in the remaining games of the season.
When asked about Liverpool's chances after their draw at West Ham, Guardiola remained cautious and acknowledged that anything can happen in the competitive league. He also mentioned the tough upcoming games for his team against Fulham and Tottenham. Keane, a former Manchester United legend, also expressed his confidence in City winning their fourth consecutive title. He praised City's quality players and their ability to win matches even when they are not at their best.
Looking back at the weekend's action, Keane believes that the title race is likely over for Arsenal and Liverpool. He praised City's players for their belief in themselves and each other, saying that they always find a way to win. However, he did mention that City may be concerned about the chances they gave up to a struggling Forest side. Nevertheless, he is confident that City will win all of their remaining games and secure the title.
City's next biggest hurdle, according to Keane, is their away game against Tottenham. But Micah Richards, a former City and England defender, pointed out that Tottenham could pose a threat with their aggressive style of play. However, Keane questioned this, pointing out Tottenham's recent performance against Arsenal. With only a few games left in the season, it seems that City's quality and determination will lead them to another title victory.
