Pep's reaction when Liverpool won the Premier League

Pep believes that defending the Premier League title is not easy.

However, he also did not forget to remind that defending the throne will not be easy next season.

While Liverpool celebrated their title at Anfield after a convincing 5-1 win over Tottenham, Manchester City also qualified for the FA Cup final after beating Nottingham Forest 2-0 on April 27. Speaking at a post-match press conference, Pep Guardiola said: "First of all, on behalf of everyone at the club, we would like to congratulate Liverpool on winning the Premier League. They absolutely deserve it, there's no doubt about it. They're a fantastic team."

However, the Spanish coach quickly issued a warning: "Winning the championship once is one thing, maintaining that position is completely different. Just like Manchester City have done in the past four seasons, Liverpool will also face the challenge of defending the title. Hopefully next season, we will play better to compete until the last minute. This season, we were unable to do that."

Liverpool won the 2019/20 championship, and since then, Guardiola has always been at the top of the Premier League. In the 2024/25 season, Liverpool under the leadership of new coach Arne Slot has shown impressive performance, making Manchester City and many other opponents admire.

Manchester City, for their part, still have a chance to end the season with a trophy, having already booked their place in the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace. Although the absence of key players in some stages of the season has significantly affected their Premier League title ambitions, Guardiola still appreciates the fighting spirit of his players and expects a positive ending.

With his proven experience and mettle, Pep Guardiola certainly won't let Liverpool "go it alone" in the 2025/26 season. Arne Slot and Liverpool will need to prepare carefully if they want to continue their success story in the Premier League.
