Guardiola bemoans ‘exhausting’ London trip as Man City lose to Spurs

0

Guardiola was noticeably tetchy as he fielded questions about his team’s inability to score or find Erling Haaland, and refused to condemn the overall performance from his side. Instead, he singled out the referee for failing to deal with fouls on players such as Jack Grealish, despite the fact Spurs defender Cristian Romero was sent off for two bookable offences.

“How many years have I been doing this [his interviews]? How many times has the referee been here?” Guardiola said, when pressed by BBC Match of the Day to address fouls on his players.

“We started really well, as usually happens against Tottenham home and away, but after we made a mistake they punished us,” he also told Sky Sports “[At] 1-0 down it is different, we had chances, and of course when we lose balls in transition with Kulusevski and Son, it is not easy. We dropped three points.

When asked if his players followed his instructions, he replied: “Most of the time, yeah. But it is not easy when 10 players defend, and sit back a little bit more than in the Etihad two weeks ago. We played good, started well and missed maybe the last pass, to shoot.”
