Pep Guardiola has revealed that Manchester City’s rivals want the club wiped “off the face of the earth” after being charged by the FA.

The trial of the century in football started on Monday with an independent hearing investigating 115 claims that the Premier League lodged at City. 

It was reported that Manchester City allegedly violated the financial fair play rules for several years.

The Premier League Champions face relegation, points deductions, or huge fines if found guilty of the charges levelled against them.

According to the Sun, the Spaniard said, “Everyone expects us to be not just relegated, they want us to disappear off the face of the earth.

“We have had many better days than our opponents. That’s why we win a lot. It’s not complicated.”

Man City has refuted all of the allegations, despite the accusations, and the hearing is anticipated to go two months.

The Belgian was withdrawn at halftime of Manchester City's UEFA Champions League draw against Inter Milan.

He will be hoping to get his key player back for the clash against title contenders Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium.
