Fans have since reacted to the altercation saying that the 53-year-old was losing his mind with the mounting pressure of injuries and losses. Throughout the game the crowd at Anfield was chanting about being sacked by the next morning. To this Guardiola had shown six fingers noting his total Premier League trophies with the club.
The gap between City and Liverpool has since diminished to nine points after Liverpool played a draw in the mid-week fixtures of the Premier League. Despite the win, pressure remains high on Guardiola and his team as they come to face Crystal Palace. They have lost three consecutive away games. City’s Champions League finish is at stake. Their season has been borderline inconsistent and underwhelming.
They have no doubt the firepower to win games with Erling Haaland’s scoring abilities and Kevin De Bruyne making a comeback into the side. Their star midfielder Rodri’s absence due to injury has made City’s defences very easy to break which has made scoring against the side easy.
