Pep Guardiola: 'Manchester City can improve on last season'

City piled up 100 Premier League points in the 2017-18 season and 98 points last campaign in claiming back-to-back titles.

Pep Guardiola claimed last weekend's draw against Tottenham proved his Manchester City side could go even better than last season.

City piled up 100 Premier League points in the 2017-18 season and 98 points last campaign in claiming back-to-back titles, and both times Guardiola said they could achieve more.

Though last weekend's 2-2 draw ended in frustration – as Gabriel Jesus' potential late winner was ruled out by VAR for the slightest of handballs from Aymeric Laporte in the build-up – Guardiola was left purring by his side's attacking football as they had 30 attempts at goal to Tottenham's three.

VAR could have been irrelevant a week ago if City had simply converted their chances, but Guardiola said goals were not a problem in a City side that scored 95 in the league last season and 106 in the campaign before.

"When you look at all the goals we've scored in the last two seasons I don't think you can say there are any doubts about us being able to score goals," he said.

"We don't have two incredible players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi who score 50 or 60 goals a season but, despite that, we scored incredible amount of goals in the last two seasons.

"You don't lose that capacity and we will continue to score."
