Guardiola wonders if league's OK with Liverpool's huge lead

Pep Guardiola doesn't forget.

After Manchester City failed to cut into Liverpool's 22-point lead by losing 2-0 at Tottenham on Sunday, Guardiola's mind turned back to 2018 and irritation at comments from the Premier League leadership.

Guardiola's team winning the league by 19 points prompted Richard Scudamore to express a desire for "someone to get a little bit closer to Manchester City" while also praising the team's excellence.

Scudamore is no longer running the league. Guardiola wonders if the competition bosses are fine with a lead so commanding that Liverpool is in line to seal the title in March with two months of the season remaining.

"An owner from the Premier League said that cannot happen again, so it's not good for the Premier League (that) City win the title in that way with 100 points," Guardiola said, without naming Scudamore.

"So now it's Liverpool you have to be concerned, the owner of the Premier League."
"When the ball left my feet I had a feeling it was going in ... and the guys jumped on me."
"This team is built to do something and play in a certain way. Ten against 11 after the chances we missed in this game still I think we were there. It's not easy."
