Pep Guardiola believes Manchester United can finish top four

Manchester United have had a poor start this season in the English Premier League and are currently sixth-placed and 13 points adrift leaders Chelsea; but Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has expressed that the Jose Mourinho’s side have a chance of finishing in the top four.

United have been held to draws in six of their last eight league games, recently securing a consecutive 1-1 results against rival Arsenal, West Ham United and Everton.

“Of course, 13 points is a long distance, especially when one team is winning games with the quality of Chelsea,” Guardiola told reporters.

“So it is not easy. But to be in the first four? Of course.”

“I saw the games against Stoke and Burnley, and other ones at Old Trafford. They deserved by far to win the games but football is like this.

“United have the quality, the history, the manager and the players to be there.”

On Sunday, United will play host to Tottenham Hotspur, who are one place above them in the table. And much is expected from the team at Old Trafford.
