Guardiola on the victory over Marseille: “The criticism is partly fair, you have to come to terms with it. This is part of the job. “
Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola shared his thoughts on a major 3-0 win over Marseille in the second round of the Champions League group stage.
“We played great, didn’t allow chances at our goal and controlled the course of the game, acting calmly and aggressively without the ball. I am very pleased with both the game and the result.
We didn’t expect Marseille to play five defenders until we saw the roster. It was the same with Porto. The more often we play against the five defenders, the more often we begin to take control and the pace of the game under our control.
We need to come to terms with criticism. We play every three days, when you win it’s great, but if not, people want to destroy everything. But the president and everyone else understands everything.
In part, the criticism is fair, but you can just put up with it. This is part of our job. Over the past month, we have added, despite injuries, lack of preseason and coronavirus. I am sure we will find stability, ”said Guardiola.

We will play the second match tomorrow. We want to win it.
