Guardiola believes City’s rivals are taking the p*** out of them

City visit runaway leaders Liverpool today on the back of a six-game winless run.

Defeat would leave them 11 POINTS adrift of Arne Slot’s side.

Guardiola confessed: “I don’t like it. I don’t enjoy it at all.

“I don’t sleep as good as when I won every game.

“Maybe it’s more unusual to win four Premier League titles in a row. In that moment I was stable enough, I was happy because I eat better and sleep better.”

Guardiola, 53, confessed scratches on his head and a cut nose were self- inflicted after he watched City blow a 3-0 lead in 14 minutes in Tuesday’s Champions League draw at home to Feyenoord.

That followed five defeats in all competitions — the Catalan’s worst run of his managerial career.

And he accepts his rivals are LOVING seeing City struggle.

Guardiola said: “As is normal in sport, they take the p and they laugh at your defeats.

“At least there’s respect. There’s no violence and this kind of stuff. It is part of how nice football is that people can laugh at you when it’s not going well.

“But this shall pass — I don’t know when but nothing is eternal, not even our lives.

“When I face this situation with my heart this is normal but maybe not in these six games.”

Guardiola says he is making his players “suffer” to pull City out of their dive — and revealed he wants to build another great squad.

One of the reasons he signed a new two-year deal last month was to put that plan into action.

Guardiola added: “At the right moment, the club — myself first — will take the decisions we have to take to maintain the club for many years to come.

“I want to be here. I asked to be here to try it.”
