Aymeric Laporte labels Man City 'superior in all areas' ahead of vital Liverpool clashes

Aymeric Laporte has insisted Manchester City have “nothing to be envious about” when it comes to Liverpool.

Liverpool are battling with City for the Premier League title and could briefly move top of the table on Saturday with a win over Watford, as Pep Guardiola’s side are due to play Burnley at Turf Moor later that afternoon. A gap that until recently looked insurmountable for the Reds, now stands at just one point.

With a crucial league meeting between the pair to come on April 10, as well as an FA Cup semi-final, the threat of Liverpool will loom large over City for the next two weeks, at the very least. However, Laporte has claimed he is unfazed by Jurgen Klopp’s resurgent Reds and believes the club have already proven that they can stand up to the test.
