Why Pep Guardiola should be worried about Liverpool

Over the years, Manchester City have proved themselves to be among the most successful teams in Premier League history. The club is coached by one of the best coaches in history in Pep Guardiola whose charisma, style of play and innovative approach is unmatched by any manager.

No doubt, Pep Guardiola is a serial winner with impeccable record, but it seems this season will be different. The revival of both Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool have caught everyone by surprise especially Guardiola.

He is fully aware that both teams are yet to lose a game this season and are fast proving that they've what it takes to break into the top 4.

Liverpool meanwhile should be biggest concern for Guardiola knowing they stopped him once and came close to stopping him twice.

To further strengthen their course to be Premier League and domestic cup champions, Liverpool have developed a new habit of conceding the first goal only to comeback in emphatic style and win.

Secondly, the manager now has a good bench to call upon and change the dimension of any game. Klopp's vast array of attacking players (Cody Gakpo, Diojo Jota, Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz, Ben Doak and the inform Darwin Nunez) can change the course of any game in a split second.

This has enabled Liverpool comeback from the brink of defeat in three of their 5 previous matches. That incredible attack is supported by a world class midfield and a very solid defense.

Pep Guardiola already knows about the monster mentality in Liverpool inculcated to the players by the manager. He is also aware of the fans never give up attitude and infectiious desire to win even when the odds are very low.

Liverpool fans are always the 12th players on the pitch, and they will roar their team to victory both home and away.

Although, beating City to the Premier League title will be tough but it's possible. Guardiola knows Liverpool will be champions if they keep up the momentum and that alone is a problem.

A Better Nigeria: What the Government must do to end food crises

What is wrong with Nigeria and its people? A sane question most people have asked for decades but little have figured out the problems. Those who have the amicable solution and well placed in positions to truly effect change are either been rigged out, threatened or even killed. Tragic you would say, but there's more to the complex web of Nigeria's challenges and food crises is one of them which the incumbent president must deal with immediately.
