Manchester City striker, Sergio Aguero, has said they are the only team that can stop themselves from winning the Premier League title this season.
Champions City currently hold a two-point lead at the top of the table and are aiming for back-to-back titles for the first time in the club’s history.
Only Manchester United and Chelsea have won the Premier League back-to-back.
“I think the Premier League is going to be more complicated this season than last.
“I think Liverpool and Chelsea are our main threats, without forgetting Arsenal, as they have been playing really well recently.
“It’s very difficult to win the Premier League again, but I think we have a good team. We are on top of the table and we have the desire to achieve that [back-to-back titles].
“At the end of the day, it’s going to depend on us. If we keep playing well and getting three points after three points, what the rest of the teams do is not going to matter. But I think it’s going to be tight until the end of the season.
“I don’t think many teams have managed to win back-to-back. It’s always good to set goals and try to achieve them.
“We are focused on our goal, so I think if we all pull together, we can do something historic,” Aguero said according to the UK Mirror.
City remain unbeaten in the league, along with Liverpool and Chelsea, but Aguero said it would be tough to emulate Arsenal’s ‘Invincibles’ by going the entire season without a defeat.
“The Premier League is not easy. Staying unbeaten is not within the reach of many teams. I think we have undertaken a big process since Pep arrived.
“We are progressing very well, we won the Premier League last season and we just think about how we can keep growing. If we manage to keep this up, stay focused, keep thinking of winning and doing the things right, we can keep the unbeaten record,” he added.
