Yaya Toure sends title race warning to Man City over 'lucky' Liverpool FC

Manchester City legend Yaya Toure believes his former club will have to win 'all their games' for the remainder of the season to beat Liverpool to another Premier League title.

The Blues on Sunday re-opened a six-point gap at the top of the table thanks to 4-1 demolition of local rivals Manchester United. Braces from Kevin De Bruyne and Riyad Mahrez strengthened City's grip on the title after Liverpool had narrowly beaten West Ham the night before.

"I saw the game against West Ham, they have been lucky in certain times. But they are impressive. A good, good team.

After over eight years at the Etihad Stadium, in which time he made 230 appearances and won seven major trophies, Toure knows what it takes to win the top prizes. Going on to discuss the footballing rivalry between the two clubs, the Ivorian has stressed how enthralling it has been for the neutral.

“It’s just brilliant for the fans," he continued. "Brilliant for the public and the people,
