City learning to channel emotions is key to closing in on Premier crown

IT wasn't quite Mo Salah and Jurgen Klopp, but City's body language in the first half at Nottingham Forest was hardly harmonious.

City learning to channel emotions is key to closing in on Premier crown

Pep Guardiola was more animated than usual, and was taking the time during stoppages to chastise players who were giving the ball away - whether it was Kyle Walker, Josko Gvardiol or Rodri.

At one point, after Gvardiol had given City the lead, the Croatian raced into the box, missed the header completely and Forest then almost scored by targeting the space he had vacated in defence.

Guardiola was livid, asking his bench what on earth Gvardiol thought he was doing. At the break, after Forest spurned two sitters from a combined total of seven yards, Guardiola looked furious as he took off to the dressing room.

If the documentary cameras are filming this season, then there may be another City Ground row on the cards given the stoney faces among the Blues contingent.
