Guardiola, clearly frustrated after watching his side fall in Lisbon, has wasted no time in firing a dig towards his rivals. City recorded a 4-1 defeat in Portugal, facing a tough loss that highlighted concerns just as they struggle to rediscover their winning form. After three successive losses, including defeats to Tottenham and Bournemouth, Guardiola commented on their upcoming rivalry with United, reminding everyone that they will square off in the Premier League and possibly the FA Cup.
After a long night in Lisbon, City star Bernardo Silva expressed that the club is in a "dark place" after their recent run of form. Despite the frustration and unrest within the team, Guardiola quickly dismissed Silva's comments, suggesting they didn't play as poorly against Sporting as they had against Bournemouth. He acknowledged, however, that the team struggled with conceding unnecessary penalties and that they'd anticipated a challenging season ahead.
