Liverpool manager Arne Slot expressed that "no one should feel sorry for Guardiola," following Liverpool's 2-0 victory over Manchester City. This sentiment was shared after the game on December 1, 2024, which marked City's fourth consecutive defeat at Anfield.
The goals from Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah propelled Liverpool to an 11-point lead over fifth-place City in the league standings.
Slot's comments come amidst a challenging period for Manchester City, who are currently enduring a seven-game winless streak, their worst since August 2008.
Despite these setbacks, Slot emphasized that the Premier League title is not determined in November, referencing City's past ability to recover from similar situations.
He noted, "Last season they were eight points behind Arsenal, I think in February. No one has to feel sorry for Pep, maybe for other managers but not for Pep. He’s won so many things and he will be able to bring City back."
