ONE SLIP & WE'RE HISTORY

Rodri: Every game a cup final if we are to repeat Treble

- DAVID MCDONNELL

RODRI has admitted Man City can't afford any more slip-ups as they hunt down a repeat of last season's Treble triumph.

They host title rivals Arsenal tomorrow, with the midfielder claiming nothing but victory will do if Pep Guardiola's champions are to win an unprecedented fourth straight Premier League crown.

The Gunners top the table on goal difference from Liverpool, with Guardiola's side a point behind, and Rodri knows there is no margin for error as the big prizes loom into view.

"It's a very, very important match," said Rodri ahead of the title showdown.

"I'm not saying it's going to be decisive, but it will be very important for the mental fight in the sense of if we're able to beat them, it will be very important for our confidence.

"It's not just this game that's like a final, it's all of them from now until the end of the season. We're still in every competition but any game that you lose can practically leave you out of the running.

"That's the level this league demands from you - to reach between 90 and 100 points to be able to win the league.
