MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester City's eight point advantage after 11 games is leading to talk of the Premier League title race being over in November, but as Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho noted - English football has a habit of throwing up surprises. But while the form of Pep Guardiola's team and - second-placed United's recent losses to Huddersfield and Chelsea - point towards a runaway title win, there is indeed lot of football left to be played. "Eight points in the Premier League is not the same in Portugal, La Liga or the Bundesliga. Guardiola was already taking about his team being tired after their midweek trip to Naples in the Champions League. If City can triumph in those games then perhaps talk of a one-horse race can be justified.
