It&#8217;s All Kicking Off<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pep Guardiola claimed Manchester City\u2019s run of form has nothing to do with luck \u2014 but was at a loss to explain why the Treble winners are conceding so many goals.<\/p>\n<p>Guardiola has seen his side let in 10 goals in their last four games in all competitions, while City have failed to win three straight Premier League matches for the first time in six years. Spurs\u2019 three goals came from just four shots on target.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We don\u2019t concede many chances,\u2019 Guardiola said. \u2018We lost against Wolves after two shots on target. Liverpool was similar.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We have to learn, and watch the game back. I learnt from Johan Cruyff that bad luck in football doesn\u2019t exist. Is the team completely different from previous seasons? I don\u2019t think so. It still feels the same to me.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou was frank with his injury-depleted squad at the break. \u2018First half we were lucky still to be in it,\u2019 the Australian said. \u2018City could\u2019ve blown us away. I said to them that if there\u2019s any fallout, I\u2019ll take responsibility but let\u2019s show more conviction. The effort second half was outstanding.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/04\/00\/78536037-0-image-m-49_1701649373375.jpg\" height=\"720\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Pep Guardiola claimed Manchester City\u2019s run of form has nothing to do with bad fortune<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/04\/00\/78527683-12821525-Tottenham_secured_a_point_against_Man_City_on_Sunday_evening_wit-a-31_1701651064522.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Tottenham secured a point against Man City on Sunday evening with the game ending 3-3<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/04\/00\/78528441-12821525-The_game_ended_in_controversy_after_the_referee_blew_his_whistle-a-32_1701651064523.jpg\" height=\"413\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The game ended in controversy after the referee blew his whistle for a foul on Erling Haaland when Jack Grealish was through on goal, after seeming initially to play advantage for the hosts<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12821525\/Pep-Guardiola-insists-bad-luck-doesnt-exist-football-Man-City-boss-urges-players-learn-struggles-season.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pep Guardiola insists &#8216;bad luck doesn&#8217;t exist in football&#8217;
