"In my first season, Chelsea dominated and the next three were us and Liverpool, we controlled the league," Guardiola said.
"But Leicester came here and scored five goals and then this week lost against Fulham, who we've just beaten. It is like how the Premier League was, everyone can beat everyone.
"The important thing is to be in there.
"In this month, it was important to focus on qualification in the Champions League and now we focus on the Premier League. It will be a long, long season for all the clubs."
Currently, the Cottagers are 17th on the table, just one point above the red zone.
