Pep Guardiola calls Tottenham Hotspur "the Harry Kane team"

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola brands Tottenham Hotspur "the Harry Kane team" when claiming that Spurs are the challengers for the Premier League title.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola called Tottenham Hotspur "the Harry Kane team" when claiming that Spurs would be among the challengers for the Premier League title this season.

City currently top the pile after seven matches of the 2017-18 campaign, but the Citizens only lead second-placed Manchester United on goal difference, with Jose Mourinho's side in excellent form this term.

Third-placed Tottenham are five points behind the two Manchester clubs, while Chelsea sit down in fourth - six points off the top after losing 1-0 at home to City on Saturday.

Guardiola has insisted that Chelsea are very much in the argument this season, and the Spaniard expects the Blues to challenge his team, United and Tottenham for the league title.

"It's in September, so Chelsea won 15 games in a row last season, were unbeatable and won the league, not easy, but they won it in advance," Guardiola told reporters.

"Of course this season has a little more problems because they play every three days, that's always more complicated for all the teams. But we also have United, we saw again the Harry Kane team scores every day two or three goals."

Kane has scored 11 times in nine appearances for Tottenham this season.
