The form of Newcastle United and their top-four rivals is now a 'problem' for Manchester City following their defeat to Tottenham. That is the view of Micah Richards, with a fourth Premier League loss of the season leaving Pep Guardiola's side five points adrift of league leaders Arsenal.
Harry Kane scored the only goal of the game in the televised encounter on Sunday afternoon to continue the reigning Premier League champions' dismal record at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Arsenal had suffered a shock loss at Everton the day before, but the five-point cushion remains with Mikel Arteta's team also holding a game in hand.
Richards is confident his former side have already proven they can put a run together to lift their fifth Premier League title in six seasons. However, the ex-defender admits it is 'not clicking' at the Etihard right now and the form of rivals such as Manchester United, Newcastle and Tottenham is a growing concern.
