Guardiola dials up sarcasm over claims Manchester City are more defensive

Pep Guardiola, the Manchester City manager, has responded sarcastically to criticism over his team's defensive tactics in their 1-1 draw with Arsenal on Sunday. City recorded the lowest possession percentage (32.8%) of any Guardiola-led team in a league game. When asked about the team's lack of possession, Guardiola replied that it was because they were "shit". This response comes after previous claims that City were a "boring team" when they won the league. Guardiola's sarcastic remarks indicate his frustration with the scrutiny surrounding his team's tactics, as they prepare to face Huddersfield in the Carabao Cup third round.
