Anfield on fire, Guardiola under pressure. During Manchester City’s 2-0 defeat against Liverpool this Sunday, December 1, Reds supporters were not lacking in irony towards Pep Guardiola. The provocative song “ You’re getting sacked in the morning » (“You will be fired tomorrow morning”) echoed through the stadium, highlighting the difficult period City are going through.
The Catalan technician’s response? A symbolic gesture: six fingers raised, recalling his six Premier League titles won with the Sky Blues.
“All the stadiums want to fire me”, quips Guardiola
At a press conference, Guardiola took the situation with humor and perspective. “ All the stadiums want to fire me! »he said, adding: “Maybe they are right with the results we had. But that’s part of the game.” City remains in seven games without a win, a series marked by four consecutive defeats in the Premier League.
Despite this bad patch, Guardiola congratulated Liverpool for their superiority and insisted on his confidence in his players: “More than ever, I want to be with them and support them. We’re going to start from scratch and build from here. »
