"Niggles. He didn't feel comfortable. The reason why? He played many games. I didn't speak with the doctors; I don't know exactly what he has. He said he didn't feel comfortable and at 3-0, with Omar and more games to come, it was common sense."
"It's not three points. After the game tomorrow, we'll see how many points it is. They have a game in hand."
Erling Haaland was withdrawn at half-time after complaining of discomfort and was replaced by Omar Marmoush with Manchester City leading 3-0. Haaland scored in the 39th minute, ending an eight-match open-play goal drought since December 20. Pep Guardiola described the issue as niggles, said Haaland did not feel comfortable, and framed the substitution as common sense given the schedule. The victory moved Manchester City within three points of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League, though Guardiola noted Arsenal had a game in hand. Fulham have now lost three straight league matches, harming European qualification hopes.
