• ‘I know we will be judged, we have to win,’ manager says
• Kevin De Bruyne likely to be fit to face Brighton at the Amex
Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City will be “destroyed” if they do not become Premier League champions on Sunday. City will retain the title if they win at Brighton or match Liverpool’s result at home to Wolves.
Guardiola’s side have accumulated 195 points in 75 league matches since the start of last season. Yet despite this stellar return City could end up with only one championship. The manager acknowledged this and how his team can expect fierce criticism if they fall at the final hurdle, pointing to the reaction to Ajax’s and Barcelona’s Champions League exits this week.
