Pep Guardiola believes his Manchester City side can get even better despite winning the 2017/18 Premier League in record style.

City became the first team to win 100 points as they claimed the title. But their manager still sees room for improvement for the 2018/19 season, starting on Friday.

"Every player can be individually better, so the guy who can shoot perfectly with his right [foot] can shoot perfectly with his left," said Guardiola at the Premier League Season Launch in Manchester.

“When you improve individually you improve the team. You cannot have a perfect game. It is not a perfect team. Always you can improve."

As for which rivals can usurp his side, Guardiola saw danger from all five teams who finished immediately below the champions, saying each had the ability to match City's record points total. 

"What we were able to do every team can do that, especially the five contenders," he said. "I would say absolutely all of them - [Manchester] United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool - will be there [challenging]."
