Both teams have eight games to play and there is now a seven point gap between them after Conte watched his side fall to a surprise loss against Crystal Palace last week.

They have also been eliminated from the Champions League by Monaco during that period, meaning that the City manager's only realistic hope of ending his first season in England with a trophy lies with the FA Cup.

Son Heung-Min was on target in Tottenham's escape act in south Wales and the South Korean forward insists the team will not give up on the title race.

However, Pochettino was unfazed by his comments, explaining: "I didn't hear him say that but I can understand". In addition to that, I also like the over 2.5 goals since I am expecting a high scoring game. Physically, we stood up to the challenge and we dominated the game. This season was a lesson for me. I never came in as a manager, either at Barcelona, Bayern Munich or when I arrived here, thinking I know absolutely everything. "I feel like we're better now so that is a more interesting year for me like a manager to grow and handle this kind of situation".

"I tried to adapt to the players as much as possible". We created chances but we had problems to score and after that we suffered. "It's important we are showing we learnt from last season". But we have to be honest with ourselves.

Despite the result, Guardiola professed himself "honoured" to be in charge of City's players and said quality "in the boxes" had been the only difference between the two teams.

"The result on Saturday put a lot of pressure on us".

He added: "We have a lot of lovely things to fight for and to qualify for the Champions League will be a huge success". We will remember this season if we win.
