It does hardly some days, Pep Guardiola launched a speech calmed and optimistic after the elimination of the Manchester City of the Champions, but now has burst. The rain of reproach that it carries striking to the Etihad Stadium from the past Wednesday has happened bill, and this noticed this Saturday in the press conference, curiously, after a key victory for the denouement of the Premier League.
The 'sky blues' confronted again to the Tottenham, and this time, his triumph yes served to step important to the title. Although in the European day was missing a goal to go on, in the championship of the regularity sufficed with a target of Phil Foden not to lose the trail of the Liverpool, that keeps by in front but has a party more.
When it was questioned by some of the rotations and by his tarpaulin to the hour to choose to the young midfield player, the Catalan burst, and answered by the criticisms that carries time fitting. "Now I am a genius, marked a goal eh? What well is the trainer... And when I put to Delph in London was a disaster, no? This is", answered, visibly annoying.
"Every time that lose, ask me in the press conference if I go to change the way in which we want to play, if I want to change this. Always you expect to a defeat to judge me. That if 'Pep still believes in what it does and does not go to change his style of game'. Already I know it", it repeated with bitterness, demanding a support that arrives when the wind blows in favour but that disappears when it goes against.
Of the same form, to Guardiola saw him very taut when they asked after him the arbitration, after an eliminatory of Champions marked by the VAR. If in the previous commitment, the technology validated a controversial goal of Fernando Llorente in which the 'citizen' demand hand and saw as in the discount cancelled them by offside the goal that gave them the classification, this time the discussion happened to the penalty spot.
"You do not speak me of the referees, please, today no. You do not speak me of the referees after what happened recently. There was two penaltis, one for each edict. To Bernardo Silva was the 2-0 and perhaps afterwards the one of Dele Alli was 2-1. But you do not speak me of penaltis after what happened does some days, please", insisted.
Hard trial to Guardiola after another defeat in Champions
As it signalled Guardiola, is usual that the critical arrive every time that there are defeats, while his team only collects praises while it wins. The requirement to form part of a big is wearing out to the of Santpedor, of the one who it is necessary to stand out that it has transformed to the Manchester City but follows him resisting the Champions, a trophy that neither reached with the Bayern of Munich and that yes conquered in his stage in the FC Barcelona.
