Pep Guardiola has refused to blow his own trumpet ahead of possibly picking up Manchester City's fourth straight Premier League title in a row.
Man City are guaranteed to win if they beat West Ham United on the final day on Sunday.
Despite having the upper hand, Guardiola insists he's expecting more drama.
Quoted by the BBC, he said: "I have the feeling it will be an Aston Villa [where Man City lost 1-0 in December] game.
"We would love to be 3-0 up but it isn't going to happen.
"I'm ready to be a tough, tough game. I want to put [that] in the minds of the players.
"It's going to happen the same. Ourselves and our people have to be ready to support from the first minute and be with us."
Guardiola also noted Man City would still have the respect of world football, regardless of who wins the title.
"I think so [Man City will get respect]. In world football, for sure."
