Manchester City head coach, Pep Guardiola, has expressed concern over his team’s recent struggles, emphasizing the need for an immediate response to reverse their poor form.
Guardiola’s comments came in the aftermath of a humbling 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, marking an unfamiliar stretch of back-to-back losses for the reigning Premier League champions.
City’s visit to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium turned into a nightmare as Spurs, themselves looking to recover from consecutive defeats, delivered a masterclass.
James Maddison starred with a stunning brace, while Pedro Porro and Brennan Johnson added their names to the scoresheet, leaving City with little to salvage from the encounter.
In his post-match remarks, Guardiola acknowledged the rare and challenging situation his side now finds itself in.
“We are not used to losing so many games in a row. That’s happened. We have to do everything to change, especially the next one,” he told the club’s official website.
City’s next opportunity to bounce back comes in the UEFA Champions League, where they host Feyenoord at the Etihad Stadium.
The match holds high stakes, with Guardiola’s men aiming to maintain their dominance in Europe amidst domestic struggles.
Following their European fixture, Manchester City face another stern test as they travel to Anfield for a high-profile Premier League clash against Liverpool.
The fixture, always one of the league’s most anticipated, now carries added significance as Guardiola’s team fights to regain momentum and reassert their championship credentials.
