Guéhi: It's Not Realistic to Expect a Big Win Over Burnley

Marc Guéhi thinks people who expected Manchester City to easily beat Burnley don't understand football.

Erling Haaland scored in the fifth minute, helping Manchester City win 1-0 and take the top spot in the Premier League.

Many thought City would score many goals against Burnley, but they only scored once from 28 attempts.

Guéhi said people think these games are easy, but a lot of emotion and focus went into the last game against Arsenal.

Guéhi said playing a team fighting for their lives isn't easy, and he's glad everyone did their job to get the win.

With five league games left, City is top of the table for the first time since August, but Guéhi isn't thinking about that now.

City has an FA Cup semifinal next, and Arsenal will play two league games before City's next Premier League game.

Guéhi said their priority is to focus on themselves and control what they can control in their games.

Guéhi and Khusanov helped keep Burnley from scoring, preserving City's win.

In the absence of injured players, Guéhi and Khusanov have formed a good partnership.

Guéhi said it's nice to play with Khusanov, who is a really intelligent defender.

Guéhi thinks they complement each other well, and he's learned from playing with other defenders.

Man City is now top of the table, but it's still a close title race.

Guéhi said Khusanov can speak English, even though he's only been in England for a little over a year.

Khusanov can also communicate in French on the pitch, which helps, and Guéhi thinks he has good English.

Guéhi believes that when you have a good understanding of football, you don't always need to talk on the pitch.
