• It was a bad day, sometimes it happens, says City manager
Pep Guardiola admitted his Manchester City players were “nervous” as they were beaten by Wolves at the Etihad Stadium thanks to two goals from a former Barcelona player, Adama Traoré.
The 23-year-old Traoré – who began his career under Guardiola at the Camp Nou – scored two in the last 10 minutes for a result that leaves the champions eight points behind Liverpool, having lost twice in their opening eight matches. That represents their worst start to a season since 2013-14 under Manuel Pellegrini, although the current manager said it is best not to look at the table due to the chasm.
