It was with a face full of scratches and blood that Pep Guardiola presented himself at a press conference. The Spanish tactician confirmed that he wanted to hurt himself after his men’s new poor performance in the Champions League.
Manchester City is sinking a little deeper into crisis. The Citizens went on to a sixth match without a victory against Feyenoord Rotterdam (3-3). Man City led 3-0 at home with 15 minutes remaining before collapsing following Pep Guardiola’s triple change. A choice that the Catalan technician seems to bitterly regret.
In the mixed zone, he showed up with his face covered in blood and marked by self-inflicted scratches. “It’s me, I scratched myself. I wanted to hurt myself with my fingers. We have problems, yes. The three changes? The game is never over, but at 3-0, I saw no danger “, Guardiola explained at a press conference.
Guardiola must quickly remobilize the troops before this weekend’s crazy clash in the Premier League. The Catalan technician will lead a Man City – Liverpool game for the first time since the departure of Jürgen Klopp. Arne Slot’s team is a hit on all fronts and will approach this match as the favorite.
This Wednesday, the Reds are preparing to host Real Madrid in the Champions League. This performance risks setting the tone for the duel against the Citizens afterwards.
