Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has described the victory of his team as fantastic in the four competitions in which he is competing this season.

Pep Guardiola dismissed the prospect of Manchester City for an unprecedented quadruple, calling it "fantasy".

The champions of the Premier League already reach the final of the Carabao Cup next month and are four points behind Liverpool in defense of their title.

This weekend, they will seek to qualify for the FA Cup at home against Burnley, while the first leg of the Champions League against the German selection Schalke must take place between them.

Guardiola only aims for short-term goals and states: "We can try to win tomorrow, that's all I can badure.Other is fantasy."

The former Barcelona coach will pit his team against a team from Burnley, who has won only three of his first 20 national matches this season.

City beat Burton 1-0 to reach the Carabao Cup final with a 10-0 aggregate win

Their most recent series of five games without defeat, a sequence including four more wins, is more of interest to Guardiola.

While Sean Dyche's team is in a relegation fight and getting out of it is a priority, Guardiola does not see this as a reason to doubt their intentions when both sides meet.

"When I hear that the FA Cup is not at the top of Burnley's agenda, does that mean 11 guys are going to play at Etihad Stadium and do not want to win?"

Guardiola's team is unbeaten in their last six games with Burnley, winning five wins.

"They do not want to win – I can not believe they're going to try to play – what they did last season by finishing seventh in the league is an incredible feat for them.

"After a bad start, they have won five or six games in a row, I have a lot of respect for what they've done and what they're trying to do."
