Man City look for a record win

AFP, MANCHESTER: Manchester City look unstoppable in their relentless surge towards the Premier League title, and only have lowly Swansea standing in the way of Pep Guardiola's men setting a new record of consecutive wins on Wednesday.

City are 11 points clear at the top of the Premier League and the managers of Manchester United and Chelsea both effectively conceded defeat in the title race at the weekend.

Their victory against Jose Mourinho's United on Sunday was their 14th straight win in the Premier League -- a single season record that also equalled the best-ever run Arsenal established over two seasons in 2002.

Yet despite their frightening form, City defender Kyle Walker is urging caution. “We have to keep our feet on the floor and keep working hard, preparing physically and mentally,” he said.

“We have another important one on Wednesday against Swansea. We have to keep getting three points.”

Guardiola has declared repeatedly that his team will lose a league match at some point this season but few people would expect that to happen at second-from-bottom Swansea.

David Silva is in dazzling form, with goals in each of his past two appearances and a man-of-the-match display on Sunday but the Premier League's leading scorers have an array of talent supporting him.
