The Premier is no stranger to Manchester City's remarkable late rally that has seen Pep Guardiola's team win back-to-back PL titles on the trot. And this season seems no different, with Arsenal feeling the full heat of the Cityzens late season wrath. Before the Gunners, Liverpool had waged a valiant war against City, only to suffer a heartbreaking defeat on the penultimate day.

As has often been the case, Manchester City believes in starting their season slowly and galloping past its rivals at the latter stages. Unlike other teams, City performs best in the face of adversity and merit the title "the best hunters in town."

3) Guardiola keeps his squad fresh

Pep Guardiola is the master at keeping the squad fresh and firing throughout the season. The improper rotation has been the downfall of many teams in the past, but not Manchester City's. The Spaniard knows best how to push the team to the core without letting fatigue creep in. For Guardiola, performance on the pitch matters more than a player's reputation. No big-name player is guaranteed a place in the starting 11 under Pep, and this is the sole reason for the hunger and desire of the players to perform at their best when called upon.

2) Pep Guardiola always has a Plan A, B and C

At the beginning of the season, nobody would've envisaged John Stones accompanying Rodri in a pivot in the City midfield. It is one of the many miraculous transformations of a player under Guardiola. The Spaniard is known for his highly innovative ideas and for helping his players reach their maximum potential. From the inverted fullbacks to transforming Grealish into an absolute beast, Guardiola is one of the fewest minds in world football that believes in thinking outside the book.

1) Champions Mentality

From the day Guardiola has stepped foot at Manchester, there is an air of invincibility surrounding the Etihad. Such is the Spaniard's obsession with winning that all of Manchester City has been infested with the winning mentality. In his six years at City, Guardiola has already bagged nine trophies and also transformed City into a European powerhouse.
