Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola insists Chelsea and Tottenham play a better brand of football than the other teams in the Premier League.

Guardiola must have been less than impressed with the style of play from Manchester United during the Manchester derby last weekend.

“Tottenham, with Chelsea, is the best team in the way to play football,” said Guardiola.

“They don’t expect the other ones, they want to make their own game. It is another amazing test for us.

“It is every three days, after Tottenham it is Leicester in the Carabao Cup, so there is not too much time to recover.

“But we are ready to face them and try to keep that level we have shown in the last period.”
