Guardiola sends message to Man United over historic treble chase

Manchester City are on track to win the Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League and they would be the first side since neighbours, Man United in 1999 to win all three and only the second ever.

After Guardiola's men defeated Sheffield United to get to the FA Cup final in Wembley, the Spaniard was asked how he felt about some United fans being scared of losing their title as the only English side to win the treble.

“They don’t have to be scared, we are neighbours, neighbours are always nice to each other,” Guardiola joked.

The City manager did, however, go on to stress that winning the treble is not currently on his mind.

There is still much work to be done before the treble becomes a reality for City. To take back control of the Premier League title race, they must beat Arsenal at home on Wednesday.

The reigning European champions Real Madrid await in the Champions League semi-final and in the FA Cup, City will have to defeat either Brighton or Man Utd in the final.
