August 8: Manchester City's former player Lescott was interviewed by the media, and he believes that Manchester City is the favorite to win the Premier League in the new season.

Lescott said: "No matter how they performed last season, Manchester City must be one of the favorites in the Premier League championships in the new season. Their head coach is Guardiola, they have some of the best players in the world, and they have just experienced a season without any results."

"Ignoring Manchester City is obviously stupid. I don't say they will win the championship, but they must be the favorites to win the championship."

"It was obviously not ideal for them last season, but they had never had any history in the Premier League. The success of the previous examples, and this will also have side effects, such as the situation in the last season. Not only reflected in the physical level, but at the psychological level, they have to remain focused for a long time and think that they must win, which will make the players feel tired. "

"The physical fatigue still exists now, but I hope they can relax psychologically. At present, they don't need to consider points, and hope they can prepare for the new season."

In addition, Lescott commented on Manchester City's new aid Cherki, He said: "He is an exciting player, he has a strong talent and strength, and I hope he can get a good start."

"But we can't draw a conclusion yet. He needs to go through a period of adaptation. He will face severe challenges. He comes from Ligue 1. In terms of physical, mental and intensity, Ligue 1 is different from the Premier League. I think we can only focus on those foreign players who perform well. Once they do not perform well, they will be questioned."

" So, the club needs to help Cherki through the adaptation period. They need to understand that people will pay attention to him every game and every minute."
