Manchester City head coach Josep Guardiola admitted that he expected such a turn of events.
— Of course, this has not happened to us before, but sooner or later it had to happen. There is no single reason. These are little things that have gone wrong since the first matches of the season. Now we have to deal with it. In the past, we managed to fix similar situations and we moved forward, — said Josep Guardiola.
It should be added that after 12 rounds, Manchester City is in second place, with 23 points in their account.
