""Everything is a little bit turning against us for many, many things," Guardiola said. "When we started New Year's [Day] in Sunderland, we missed what we missed and then we started to get injuries. Matheus [Nunes] with the flu cannot be with us so it's many, many things that are against [us].""
""At that level, the Champions League or United at the top level, it's always more difficult to have consistency that we had -- one, two months, winning seven, eight games. Now, okay, we've lost important players, we've lost a little bit, but in general the tone of the team was much, much better than the last one.""
Manchester City lost 3-1 to Bodo/Glimt in the Champions League after a poor run that included a 2-0 derby defeat to Manchester United. Kasper Høgh scored twice inside three minutes and Jens Petter Hauge added a second-half long-range strike that put the hosts 3-0 ahead. Rayan Cherki reduced the deficit but Rodri was sent off after two bookable offences in quick succession. City have only won in domestic cups in their last seven matches, recorded three draws and a league defeat recently, and are dealing with injuries and illness while slipping in both domestic and European standings.
