Feyenoord (H) | CL | Post Match Thread

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, speaking to Amazon Prime: "The game was fine at 3-0, playing good, but then we concede a lot goals because we were not stable. We gave them the first and then the other one, that is why it was difficult.

"We lost a lot of games lately, we are fragile and of course we needed a victory, the game was good for the confidence. We were playing a good level but the first time something happened we had problems.

"I don't know if it is mental. The first goal cannot happen and the second as well. After that we forget what happen, we were desperate to win and do well, we do well but don't win games.

"The situation is what it is. We played a good game but at that level we can't give them away.

"Right now I am not ready to think about that [need to win final three games to finish top eight]. We have to recover and prepare for the next game. If we are not able to win games like we did today it is difficult to do it."
 
Can’t understand the love for Grealish tonight. He did fuck all, never made a positive move bar his deflected shot and looks out of shape.
If anything, he should have been subbed as he was bolloxed.
It was a reminder that when him and Bernie play play wide they create nothing.
Bernado spent the whole 1st half stunting attacks by totally refusing to put the ball in with any urgency.
 
I think Pep needs a share of the blame too. He made two nonsensical subs. Debruyne for Gundo and McAtee for Ake. He didn't need to do that.

If he can't make subs: with fifteen or so minutes left to play; when we're 3-0 up and coasting; when De Bruyne needs minutes in his legs with a big game coming up at the weekend; when Gundogan at his age was never brought back with the intention of him playing full ninety-minute games, especially not with the big game I just referred to coming up at the weekend and no-one to play in his position, because Kova's injured…
well, if he can't make subs in all those conditions, then he simply no longer has a squad.
