Manchester City won three consecutive cups in May and June last year. It defeated Arsenal in the Premier League to win its first trophy. Then, in early June, it won its second cup with a 2-1 FA Cup final against local rival Manchester United.

Then, a week later, they defeated Inter Milan 1-0 in the Champions League in Istanbul, Turkiye, to achieve their first treble.

This season, Guardiola vowed to retire if he achieved the treble. Given the current situation, it is not easy to win three gold medals. First of all, the Premier League ranks fourth, six points behind Arsenal.

Last season, Manchester City fell behind Arsenal until April and won the Premier League with a reversal in May. With such precedents, some predict that they can win this year. Arsenal, Liverpool and Aston Villa are ahead of Manchester City, but they are expected to compete with Arsenal for the trophy this season.

Guardiola also looks confident. Although he remains in fourth place, he is said to be confident of winning the title. Guardiola made the claim in an interview with Amazon Prime.

Guardiola said, "I find it extremely difficult to win the treble for two consecutive years. How many strong teams do we have in England? Sir Alex Ferguson of Manchester United achieved it only once, and we did it last season. We will see our level going forward. Forget about the performances in September, October and November." He has confidence that he can improve his performance going forward.

Of course, it is true that Manchester City is having a difficult season this season because it is running the team without midfielder Kevin De Bruyne.

Guardiola went on to say that Manchester City will go all out in the future to achieve an unprecedented four-game winning streak in the EPL.

At the Champions League, the most important competition, Manchester City has passed the group qualifying round as the No. 1 player in Group G. From the round of 16, it is a home-and-away game, so no one knows what will happen.

The FA Cup in England has not started yet. The round of 64 will be held on Jan. 7. They will face Huddersfield at home. As such, it is still too early to talk about winning three gold medals. However, Guardiola promised to win two consecutive games.
