How Man City and Pep Guardiola are battling history to land an unprecedented quadruple
Other great teams of the modern era also fell short. United's famous Treble of 1998-99 included the FA Cup, not League Cup - they went out of that competition to Tottenham in the quarter-finals, on 2 December.
City's own 'Centurions' - the Guardiola side that broke the 100-point mark and set an all-time English top-flight record for most points in a single campaign in 2017-18 - had their bid ended by Wigan Athletic, of League One, in the FA Cup on 19 February. The Chelsea side of 2007-08 are probably the best example of that. They finished runners-up in the league by two points, lost in the final of the Champions League and League Cup, and were knocked out of the FA Cup in the sixth round.Five more wins from their final nine games will give Manchester City their third Premier League title in the past four years, regardless of what their rivals do
But that was because City were in the midst of a title tussle with Liverpool that went to the final day and was mentally and physically draining every week - they had to win their last 14 league games of the season to hold off the Reds.
