Pep Guardiola has taken the blame for Manchester City’s slump and said he has no doubt about the quality of his players.

City have slipped to third in the Premier League, seven points behind leaders Liverpool, after three defeats in their last four games.

His side travel to Southampton on Sunday and Guardiola said it is important to return to winning ways ahead of Liverpool’s visit to the Etihad Stadium four days later.

“I know my players and I won’t doubt them for a second,” he told a news conference. “I know what they have to do.

“I never point the finger, I look in the mirror and instead ask what can I do to help them.” (Agency Report)
