“It’s in our hands”: Guardiola takes positive

Pep Guardiola took the Positives of the 0-0 tie of Manchester City in Southampton Relegate, which could be a harmful mishap in the Champions League football career.

City welcomed Erling Haaland an ankle injury, but he and his teammates were frustrated, as Southampton maintained the first clean sheet since December to ensure that they would not tie the Premier League League League’s points in Derby County.

Southampton will now end a miserable season with at least 12 points, but it is at the other end of the table the result that is most important, and City has the opportunity to go second and provide a boost to its rivals in the race for the five champions league standings.

City would have displaced six points from the nottingham forest of sixth place with the most anticipated victory. Instead, Forest can move to a point in the city with a victory over Leicester City on Sunday. If there is a massive game winner in St James Park between the fourth place in Newcastle United and the fifth place of Chelsea, then they will jump in the city third.

Although it is clearly frustrated by the Southampton approach, Guardiola was relatively optimistic, as he evaluated the performance on his side.

“Hard. We had possibilities, but unfortunately we couldn’t mark,” Guardiola told BBC Sport.

“(Southampton was) playing to defend and defend and waste time. We take this point yet, it is in our hands.

“(We did not expect them to defend so deeply. We were so good defensively, but unfortunately we lost the last actions.

“This point was really important.”

Ombudsman Ruben Dias was more emphatic in his critique of Southampton.

“It’s frustrating to play against a team like them. They don’t even try to play, just waste the time the whole game,” said DIES.

“I don’t even feel like they want to play the game or win the game. They are just sitting. We tried all the senses. We had possibilities, but we didn’t score. That’s what it is.”

Haaland played the complete game on his return, as City was looking for a decisive goal, the importance of this search for a pause at the dead point that led to a change in the Guardiola Plan.

Guardiola added, “He (Haaland) did not expect to play as minutes, but the way we played the game we needed people in the box.”
