The City boss preferred to concentrate on his own players rather than worry about Liverpool facing Wolves.He said: “It is better to focus on what we have to do.“If we win we don’t have to look at anything else. Why should we be distracted by anything else.”Whatever the outcome on Sunday, Guardiola believes his players should be proud of the season they have produced. City have already won the Carabao Cup this term and will try to add the FA Cup next week.Guardiola said: “First of all it’s a dream to be here, I didn’t expect it when we were seven points behind.“We’ve shown many things. If we make back to back it would be nice but nothing is going to change too much – the fact is we have done incredibly well all season.”
