REUTERSPIX: Pep Guardiola has urged his Manchester City stars to keep their emotions under control as the Premier League leaders bid to pip Liverpool to the title on a dramatic final day of the season.
But if City drop points, Liverpool will be crowned champions for a English record-equalling 20th time if they beat Wolves at Anfield. But the Spaniard, hoping to win the 10th league title of his glittering managerial career, said: “I told the players it’s just a football game, don’t think of the consequences, of how happy we will be if we win or how sad we will be if we lose. Just think about what you have to do to win against Aston Villa.
“Imagine somebody tells you before the season, you’re going to be in all three cup finals and want to fight for the league. You would say ‘Yeah, good luck with that’,“ said Klopp, who led Liverpool to their first title for 30 years in 2020. The fight to qualify for next season's Champions League via a top-four finish has gone down to the wire, with fourth placed Tottenham controlling their fate.
“We know the importance of the game. If someone thinks the situation is easy I am not that person and I don’t transfer these thoughts to my players,“ Conte said.
