Guardiola: “Give me back my players, you will see Man City!” » – C1 – J5 – Manchester City-Feyenoord

Full circle, Pep.

Humiliated by Tottenham at the Etihad Stadium (0-4), Saturday, Manchester City now has five defeats in a row in all competitions. An unprecedented situation for Skyblues since the arrival of Pep Guardiola in 2016. Still second in the league, eight points behind Liverpool, Kevin De Bruyne and his partners meet at the Etihad this Tuesday to face Feyenoord. Faced with his responsibilities at a press conference, Pep Guardiola spoke of the number of injuries he believes is too high to explain the current sad series.

“You can deal with the absence of one or two players, but not four or five in key positionshe said, knowing that Rodri, Jérémy Doku, Ruben Dias, John Stones, Mateo Kovačić and Oscar Bobb are out. It is very difficult to do without four of your central defenders. Two midfielders are injured. Rodri, the best player in the world, is not there either. Three outfield players are injured. Give me back my players: you will see Man City!»

Enough to add fuel to the mill of detractors accusing him of only knowing how to deal with top-level teams.
