Former Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha has admitted there is a degree of “nervousness” around the club ahead of their crucial clashes with Liverpool - but has rejected the idea that Pep Guardiola’s side are in poor form.
Liverpool have moved to within one point of the league leaders in recent weeks, after City dropped five points in their last four games , while the Reds are on a nine-match winning streak in the Premier League. And the two sides are set to meet in quick succession next month.
With a potential title-deciding clash at the Etihad and an FA Cup semi-final still to come, questions have been raised after City saw their significant lead at the top dwindle to a single point. However, Onuoha believes Guardiola’s side have shown that they have the quality to challenge for multiple honours, after a relatively slow start to the season.
