Zabaleta: title not won yet
Date published: 09 May 2014
MANCHESTER City defender Pablo Zabaleta insists nobody at the club is celebrating the Barclays Premier League title - yet.
City need only a draw from their final game of the season against West Ham on Sunday to clinch a second crown in three years.
Manuel Pellegrini's men put one hand on the trophy when they beat Aston Villa 4–0 on Wednesday to move two points ahead of Liverpool, with a much superior goal difference.
Fans will now hope to turn Sunday's clash into a party, but Zabaleta has warned the job is not done.
"Everybody was happy, of course," the right–back said. "Every time you win a game like that you celebrate, and we knew it was an important game to give us another step forward for the title.
"But every single player knows we have done nothing yet.
"We need to keep fighting. The spirit of this group has been fantastic in the last few games and we just need to keep playing the way we want to play. We have been doing it for the whole season so we will change nothing.
"We know a draw is enough to win the league, but we won't be playing for a draw. We will play to win."
