Guardiola dismissed injuries as the sole cause of Manchester City's struggles, urging his team to accept their situation and work together to improve. Man City's struggles deepened as their winless streak extended to five games, capped by a crushing 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on home soil. 

Despite the uncharacteristic vulnerability of Manchester City, the manager is optimistic about the situation, stating, "We were always a team that conceded few but now we concede more, and it is for many reasons. I'd like there to just be one reason, but there are many reasons for the season. When the players come back better and better we will do it.” 

The manager stated, “For the way they played, they are angry, but sometimes the opponent is good, and sometimes you are not good enough in some departments.” 

He further added, “The fragility is that they have little situations that we are not strong enough due to the injuries that we had.”

"John feels good but has to leave after 45 minutes. I give credit to Tottenham. We were always a consistent team, conceding few chances, and lately we conceded more chances than usual, and our game was about control; this is not a team created to do box to box 40 times in a game—we are not good at that.” 

He concluded with, "We have to break it quick and accept it. The best way to go through the position is accept the reality. It's not about you, me, you, the weather or the grass - we have to start to winning games.”
