EPL: Sending off was a pivotal point – Guardiola reacts to Man City’s 2-0 loss to Tottenham

Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola has responded to his side’s Premier League 2-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

Guardiola says defender, Oleksandr Zinchenko‘s red card was a key point during the encounter against Jose Mourinho’s men, adding that he told his players at half-time to be careful against Spurs.

Tottenham defeated Guardiola’s men at home, thanks to goals from Steven Bergwijn and Son Heung-min.

“With this performance from my players, how should I be critical of my players after this performance? I was discussing with my staff and my wife and some players,” BBC quoted Guardiola as saying after the game.

“It would be an incredible mistake to say how bad they are. It is not valid. Football is meant for creating chances and conceding few goals. Some times this season it has happened to us.

“The sending off was a key point. We finish with 10 or 11, and it’s completely different in terms of quality.

“I told the players at half-time, be careful, yellow cards are fast and quick action, and sometimes to make a decision at that moment is not easy.”

Arsenal, Everton in contention to sign Rodriguez in January transfer

Arsenal and Everton face a major obstacle in their bid to sign a Real Madrid star, while a Tottenham strike target is available for £25.2m, according to yesterday’s Euro Paper Talk. Everton and Arsenal reportedly have a problem in their January transfer pursuits of Colombia playmaker James Rodriguez. The 28-year-old returned to Real Madrid in the summer after spending two seasons on loan at Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich. Rodriguez has failed to live up to expectations after he burst onto the scene at the 2014 World Cup, with Los Blancos now keen to see him leave permanently. Reports over the past week stated that the former Porto and Monaco man is a target for the Premier League rivals, having made only 11 appearances in Spain so far this season. It is claimed that Rodriguez is tempted to link up with former boss Carlo Ancelotti at Goodison Park and force through a loan move, but Madrid will hold out for as long as possible to see him leave for good. Mikel Arteta is also known to adm...

Does the US have a problem with topless women?

Image copyright GETTY IMAGES Image caption Topless women in 2017 protest Women fed up with being forced to cover up their breasts and nipples are challenging American laws about nudity and sparking a debate about the country's attitude to the naked female form. In September, Effie Krokos was awarded a $50,000 (£38,178) civil settlement after she took her shirt off in public in Loveland, Colorado, and was issued a summons for doing so. The 20-year-old was charged with indecent exposure after she played Frisbee topless in her fiance's front yard. She had thought that the law in Colorado had changed and she was safe to take her shirt off when she got hot and sweaty during the game - after all her fiance had removed his top too. They were equal, right?
