Manchester City’s coach Pep Guardiola surprised the media and the fans in the after game press conference following the Citizen’s 1-1 draw against Chelsea in the Etihad Stadium on the twenty-fifth day of the 2023/2024 Premier League season, where the locals delivered a poor performance.

When analyzing the game, Guardiola regretted the horrible rhythm shown by his team in the first half of the game, revealing that they didn’t play as Manchester City should play and the football fans expect them to play.

After being a totally unknown team they would have reacted in a good way according to Guardiola, who also hailed the great second half given by the Citizen, where Erling Haaland starred in a terrible performance.

The Norwegian striker looked frustrated, and after not having been able to score against Copenhagen in the Champions League, he missed three clear chances against Chelsea, which caused the rage and the annoyance of the striker during the game.

What did Guardiola say?

Pep Guardiola, asked about this situation in the after game press conference, was clear about the striker’s performance, and surprised the journalists with a shocking message, revealing he’s not the right man to tip the striker. "I played for 11 years and scored 11 goals. One goal a season. I'm not a proper man to give advice to strikers. We created the chances and next time he's going to score. I don't blame him..." he said.
