Guardiola criticizes Manchester City's off-the-ball discipline
Pep Guardiola criticized Manchester City's off-the-ball discipline after they dropped five points in a week. City drew 2-2 with Brighton, following a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest, leaving them just one point ahead of sixth-placed Newcastle. Guardiola noted that City has conceded 40 goals this season, the most in any of his campaigns. Key defenders are injured until May, and Bernardo Silva also faced an injury scare during the Brighton match. City has nine matches left to secure a Champions League spot for next season. Guardiola expressed hope for improvement but acknowledged the team's current struggles.
