Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has highlighted an advantage that Chelsea holds over their rivals, including Manchester City, Liverpool, and Arsenal.
According to Guardiola, the depth of Chelsea's squad is a key factor that sets them apart this season. Currently, Manchester City finds themselves in fifth place in the Premier League standings, trailing nine points behind league leaders Liverpool.
This gap widened after Liverpool's recent 2-2 draw with Fulham. As City prepares for an upcoming derby against Manchester United, Guardiola emphasized the importance of squad size in maintaining competitiveness throughout the grueling season.
"Chelsea have built a key advantage over us due to the size of their squad," Guardiola remarked. "It's something we need to address if we are to compete at the highest level consistently."
This revelation comes amidst a challenging period for Manchester City, who recently fell to fourth place, 11 points adrift of the top spot, as Liverpool continues to dominate the league.
Meanwhile, Chelsea and Arsenal are showing signs of resurgence, with both clubs making strides towards the top four.
