Pep Guardiola has admitted that his Manchester City side are far from perfect after having their unbeaten start to the season ended by Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League today.
City end today just a point clear at the top of the table, after an Alexander Kolarov own-goal and a strike from Dele Alli condemned City to defeat.
It was the second time inside a week that City had failed to win, after being held at Celtic in the Champions League in midweek.
“They were better. We were not in the right positions so congratulations to them,” Guardiola told the BBC.
“The first goal is quite similar to the one we conceded in Glasgow, it is always difficult to recover. We played much better in the last 15 or 20 minutes. We knew they would press us high, we wanted that but they did it better.
“[Losing] It is part of the game, part of our job. I never thought that we would not lose a game, you can’t imagine that. It is normal to the process, sometimes it happens and it can help us improve.
“I am not here for the talk around me, I am here to do my job. It is October, you cannot imagine my team is already done. I am new here. So far it has been an amazing performance but we need more, we have to work more, it is what it is.
“At the end of the season you can win and still realise that you are not perfect.”
