KYLE WALKER insists Manchester City want to create further history today by becoming the first side to do the 'double Double'.
No side in English football has ever won the league and FA Cup back-to-back but after becoming the first side to win four titles in a row, City are eyeing another record.
City captain Walker knows local rivals Manchester United would love nothing more than to spoil their party and he reckons that will fire up Pep Guardiola's side even more.
"The motivation speaks for itself," said Walker.
"To be the first team to do the double Double, the first team to win four in a row, the first team since Manchester United to do the Treble - we keep knocking down these hurdles and this is another we need to knock down.
"But it's against our rivals who live in the same city and who are going to want to rain on our parade.
"We need to make sure that we play the game we have been playing, particularly to the back end of this season.
"To go on the run that we went on when Arsenal were as they were is a great credit to us and shows the enthusiasm and the work ethic is still there.
