EPL: De Bruyne reveals how he felt after Manchester City won title ahead of Liverpool
Manchester City
playmaker, Kevin De Bruyne, has said he has no sympathy for Liverpool, after
they pipped them to the Premier League title by just a point, because they were
the better team in the end.
Liverpool lost just
one match all season to finish on 97 points, the highest total ever by a
runner-up.
It was a number
that would have been enough to win the title in all-but three Premier League
seasons.
“It’s a remarkable
effort [from Liverpool], but it means that we were just better than them in the
end.
“I don’t feel sorry
for them, because I don’t think they’d feel sorry for us.
“I don’t think
anybody felt sorry about the way we went out of the Champions League. You take
it. I know how they feel, because you’re going to feel disappointed. We’d feel
the same if it happened to us. But we’re still competitors. We want to win as
much as they do, but I can understand the feelings they have.
“It’s the general
view of athletes. You feel compassionate with other teams, but in the end the
most important thing is, if you play an individual sport, it’s yourself, and
when it’s your team, it’s your team. It’s been a great battle. But to feel
‘sorry’ for them is maybe going a little too far,” De Bruyne told reporters
ahead of their FA Cup final against Watford.
