Manchester City manager Joseph Guardiola criticized his team after defeating Tottenham Hotspur (4:2).
How did we get back in the game? This is my duty, part of my job. I want our fans back, I want them to be with us. I’m not talking about the fans who come away – they are the best – but about those who attend matches at the Etihad Stadium. During every turn, every action, we need support. You have to return them, but now everything is fine.
The Premier League does not wait. We compete with Arsenal and they have the spark. They haven’t won a title in 20 years. Premier League, and every player on their team knows what will go down in history if they win. This is how we felt when we won Premier League the first time they broke all records and won the championship for the second time in a row.
Right now we don’t have a spark, but we mustn’t complain. I just explained what the order of things is. And the opponents don’t waste time. Obviously I’m not happy. I don’t recognize my team. My team always has aspiration, desire and everything necessary.
