Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has admitted that his side are exhausted ahead of next week's potential Premier League title decider against Arsenal.
The Citizens currently sit four points behind the Gunners in first place, although the reigning champions have a game in hand on their title rivals, who they also welcome to the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday night for a mouthwatering top-of-the-table clash. City have endured a gruelling schedule in recent weeks considering they are still in the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League as well as Premier League contention.
After securing their path to the Champions League semi-finals on Wednesday night following a 4-1 aggregate win over Bayern Munich, Guardiola revealed that his players are extremely tired ahead of Saturday's FA Cup semi against Sheffield United. Speaking at full-time, the former Barcelona boss said: "Every time we play FA Cup after this competition we are exhausted, the team are exhausted, so I don’t know how we are going to recover to play against Sheffield [United].
