LISTEN NOW:It is all getting underway!Will Arsenal sign Ollie Watkins? The Gunners are a little late and worried, and their planning is appalling!

A irritatedAccording to Pep Guardiola, his Manchester City team’s second-half collapse was caused by a vulnerability that has occurred “so many times.”

Before Arsenal quickly went on the rampage with four goals, Erling Haaland gave the Manchester team a headed equalizer on the 55th minute.

• Guardiola’s team has given up four goals or more in a single season for the first time in his managerial tenure.

  Guardiola remarked, “It strikes me that we haven’t performed as well in the last 20 to 25 minutes as we did in the first 60.” In order to prevent it from happening again, we must now take stock, consult with the players, and hope.

  Long balls received most of the attention, but what occurred each time we utilized them? We lost them. Arsenal came back stronger than ever. Erling and other attackers find it challenging to play long balls against Gabriel and Saliba (William).

  “Obviously, everyone was exhausted and emotionally affected after playing like that for the last 20 minutes, but that’s what we had to learn even though the game was well played.”

  In response to a question on if his team’s waning confidence during a season in which Man City has already lost seven Premier League games, he said, “It can be fragile because it happens so many times.”

  times. However, there is always room for improvement, and we have an obligation to learn.

  The leaking display clearly annoyed John Stones, who apologized to the traveling supporters.

  Stone stated: “It’s challenging.” We all don’t handle losing well, I believe. It is challenging to speak clearly after a game like that. It hurts to be proud. To the fans that traveled to see it, we apologize.

  “The way we performed in the final half was unacceptable.” Both individually and as a group, it’s not us.

  When you know it’s not your team in those circumstances, it is not pleasant to be involved. You have to give Arsenal credit for making this a difficult place to visit. We had several fantastic football moments during the 65 minutes.

  “It was a swinging point, and we were in the game.” For us, it went the wrong way. Both individually and collectively, I am outraged and furious about how the game ended.
