AI Summary

Pep Guardiola has declared that celebrations for Manchester City's recent FA Cup victory will be postponed as the team focuses on securing the Premier League title. After a narrow 1-0 win against Chelsea at Wembley, Guardiola emphasized that his players would not even enjoy a single beer until the season concludes.

Guardiola's decision comes as Manchester City aims for a historic third treble during his tenure in England. He urged his squad to honor departing players John Stones and Bernardo Silva by clinching the league title.

Upcoming matches are critical:

  • Tuesday: Away game against Bournemouth
  • Final Day: Home match against Aston Villa

Following the FA Cup triumph, Guardiola stated, "Home. Not even one beer. Next Monday after Aston Villa, we're going to celebrate it with the women's team, with some parade in Manchester."

Both Stones and Silva are set to leave the club, with Silva having announced his departure after nine years and Stones marking a decade at Etihad Stadium. Guardiola expressed the importance of securing a third trophy as a fitting farewell for his players.

He also mentioned that travel disruptions due to a fire in Nuneaton had complicated preparations, stating, "Yesterday the travel was a nightmare, it took six hours to arrive."

As the title race heats up, Guardiola remains committed to ensuring his team delivers a fitting tribute to their departing stars.
