"We won 14 games in a row to become champions a few years ago. We will be champs if we win all of our games "He added.
"It is contingent upon weariness and injury, as well as the Champions League.
"We just have a month - possibly five weeks. It's been eleven months, and it's finally down."We have three difficult away games [against Leeds, West Ham, and Wolves], but it's only six games, so we'll give it our all; after that, who knows what will happen.
"We're up against one of the best football sides in history, and they have it all. The players are well aware of this. We were better in the game we played here [the 2-2 draw with the Reds], but we couldn't win.
"We have no possibility of losing any points. We've played under pressure before, knowing that we had to win."
Guardiola was overjoyed by his team's qualification for the Champions League next season, which was secured with the win over Brighton.
"This is one of the finest days of my life," he remarked, "since we will be in the Champions League next season."
