Guardiola blames his players

Speaking after City's draw with Nottingham, Guardiola shifted the blame to his charges for the disappointing result.

According to the Spaniard, the result was largely down to to his players' failure to kill off Steve Cooper’s resilient and brave Forest.

“We dropped points because we didn’t score more - and we could have also defended with more energy for their goal," Pep said via The Mirror.

“The way we played was brilliant. We should have been 3-0 up at half-time but then we conceded one shot on target and dropped points," he added.

Haaland matches Aguero's record

Sports Brief had earlier reported that Haaland took his tally to 26 in just 21 games for the season. These astronomical stats made City’s summer signing clock another milestone.

He now has the same number of goals as the legendary Sergio Aguero did in his best-ever Premier League season.

In the 2014-15 campaign, the Argentine was unstoppable, as he managed 26 strikes that season under the guidance of Manuel Pelligrini as Man City finished the season in second place, behind Chelsea.
