City boss to hold a 'special meeting' with players ahead of title showdown

Guardiola has urged his squad to approach the game as they would any other, praising City players for their lack of celebrations in the dressing room after Tuesday’s momentous win at Tottenham.

While the boss expects a nervy final day akin to the 2022 comeback against Aston Villa, he will use that memorable victory to motivate this year’s squad.

Hinting at a meeting he will hold with the players in the coming days, Guardiola said that he will show them something to remind them of their individual and collective qualities, as well as what awaits them if they do win.
