Marc Guehi insists there is no talk of a Treble in the Manchester City dressing room. And Guehi has told all those who think Pep Guardiola's men will now cruise to another league title, that they don't know football.
City have overtaken title rivals Arsenal at the top of the table for the first time since August, following Wednesday's slender 1-0 win at Burnley.
City were expected to win by a landslide to relegate the Clarets and boost their goal difference. But City had to rely on a single goal from Erling Haaland to see off a spirited Clarets team.
Guardiola's side now meet Southampton in Saturday's FA Cup semi final, looking to keep alive their hopes of claiming a hat-trick of trophies this season. But Guehi has revealed the subject hasn't even been mentioned within the squad.
When asked about the team's chances of winning two more trophies to add to the Carabao Cup triumph, the England defender said: "That's what you guys are talking about.
"We just focus on one game at a time, that's the most important thing. It's Southampton next and it's important that we focus on that - and see if we can get to another final.
"Everyone thinks these games are easy, when a lot of emotion and focus went into the last game against Arsenal. When you're playing a team that's fighting for their lives (Burnley), it's not going to be easy.
"Whoever thought it was going to be easy clearly doesn't know football. I'm glad everyone did their jobs and dug in. The most important thing was just to get the win."

Guehi admits it is a good feeling to be back on top of the table and looking down on the rest. Arsenal will play two league now before City resume their title charge, but Guehi has told his side to just focus on themselves - and forget about what Mikel Arteta's men might do.
He added: "I'm not thinking too much about being top, to be honest. It's good, it's where we want to be, but there's still such a long way to go. It's nice for now, but there's still a lot to play for.
"Our priority is just to focus on ourselves. We played the game against Arsenal and were able to control that game - and now it's up to us to do the best in the games that we have left."
