Pep Guardiola thought his side showed at Brighton why they are the best team in the country despite 'drinking all of the alcohol in Manchester'.
City celebrated hard on Sunday after lifting the Premier League title following their crowning after the win over Chelsea, with the players starting proceedings at the stadium before heading to a Manchester bar and nightclub to party into the night. However, they were back at the training ground the following day to begin preparations for games with Brighton and Brentford this week.
Brighton gave City a thorough test at the Amex Stadium, scoring one and seeing another two disallowed in a 1-1 draw that was high on entertainment. However, the Blues withstood the challenge and Guardiola was fuming that a late goal for Erling Haaland was ruled out.
