Pep Guardiola has named Liverpool as his and Manchester City's main rival throughout his time in English football.
There is no doubting the United Arab Emirates-backed club have been the dominant force in English football over the last six years
Guardiola was asked if cross-city rivals Manchester United had been his greatest foe, or if that mantle belonged to any other team in the Premier League.

"There was one year with Ole [Gunnar Solskjaer] it was quite close, but Liverpool,"
"When I finish my tenure here Liverpool have been my rival - our rival.
"They (Liverpool) make the challenge higher and higher, and help make us a better team in all departments. They challenge us like never a team has done before in my period here.
"Of course Arsenal are back and Newcastle arrive, Chelsea are in the process to restructure a few things and they need time, but they will do it with the manager they have and the investment they have done. In the past it was Liverpool."
