Pep Guardiola makes Europa League admission after Manchester City win at Burnley

Pep Guardiola has bizarrely claimed that at one stage this season Manchester City's aim was just to qualify for next year's Europa League. Citizens celebrated a 2 - 0 win over Burnley last night, while this is their ninth consecutive victory in the Premier League this term. They are currently sitting in 1st place in the league table, three points ahead of Manchester United. "We have to do our job. It's a big mistake to think about other sides," Guardiola told BBC Sport after Burnley win. "When we were 12th we were thinking 'forget about the Premier League, [see] if we can achieve being in Europa League next season.' "It's not about runs of games, statistics. It's always the next game, next game. For now we enjoy this game, and tomorrow we will start to think about the next game."
