Manchester City center-back Ruben Dias has raised doubts about his team’s Premier League credentials as they face key fixtures against Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal in the coming month. The team’s hopes for a record-breaking fourth successive Premier League title could be determined by the results of these upcoming matches.

Currently, only two points separate Liverpool, Manchester City, and Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table, with Arsenal holding a superior goal difference. Manchester City is on a 17-match unbeaten streak across all competitions and recently secured a 1-0 victory over Bournemouth with a goal from Phil Foden.

Despite dropping points to Chelsea in a 1-1 draw, Manchester City remains in contention for the Premier League title, as well as in the race to retain their Champions League and FA Cup crowns. They are set to face Luton Town in the FA Cup fifth round and have a second-leg tie against FC Copenhagen in the Champions League.

Upcoming fixtures against Manchester United and Liverpool will test City’s title aspirations, with doubts arising due to a series of frustrating performances and mixed results. Ruben Dias acknowledged the uncertainty, stating that the team must reinvent themselves each season as players and circumstances change.

Manchester City has faced challenges with key players missing due to injuries, including Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland. De Bruyne returned from a hamstring injury against Bournemouth, while Haaland has struggled to find the back of the net in recent matches.

As they navigate through a crucial period in the season, Manchester City will need to overcome these challenges and maintain their focus to secure success in both domestic and European competitions.
