Guardiola Makes a fresh start: "it is not the worst defeat of my career"

In words conceded to the media in press conference, Pep Guardiola analysed with pesadumbre the conclusive defeat suffered against the FC Barcelona in the Camp Nou, after a party in which the Manchester City, all was said, had bad luck with the slip of Fernandinho in the first goal of Messi and, in the second half, with the expulsion of Claudio Bravo after a failure garrafal out of the area.

"It is difficult to play with the Barcelona. Until the expulsion the party was opened, have created opportunities but know that his forwards do not forgive. We are in a moment in which we give him a lot to the rivals, but is October. Inside two weeks go back to play again. It is necessary to rest", valued Pep Guardiola.

The one of Santpedor, however, does not think that this was the worst defeat of his career like trainer. "It is not the worst defeat. The worst defeat of my career was with the Bayern against the Madrid by the situation and the errors that committed when choosing the alignment. We have created our occasions but the played of the slip of Fernandinho has been key. Afterwards it happened the of Claudio…", signalled the Catalan.

It explained the suplencia of the "Kun" Agüero, that was in perfect physical conditions but did not play of start and went out already with all the fish sold. "It is well, it is not lesionado. It is a technical decision that took yesterday. It has been it was some days and needed a midfield player more. There were two ways to face the party. Play backwards and lose or win, but do not know it do. It does not like me do this. These players of the Barça what more have the ball more damage can do you. It is not easy to play against these players. Ten against eleven already was another party", analysed.

The 4-0 perhaps was too punishment for the Manchester City. "Have the perception that we have not been so bad. Recently that we know us but I think that we have been a brave team", related Pep Guardiola, that is not surprised by the big performance of Leo Messi. "Since it knew it it did these things and goes on doing them. It is not the first time that does it. I have lived it many times in direct. It is necessary to congratulate him".

Now, the Manchester City is "forced" to win two parties more in Champions League to classify of face to the eighth of final of the competition. "We have to win two parties. The group is difficult. We knew it in advance, but they remain split. It is not an eliminatory. If it was like this, it would be closed".
