'We've never lived this situation' admits Guardiola as Man City lose five in a row
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola admitted "in eight years we have never lived this kind of situation" after Tottenham won 4-0 at the Etihad on Saturday to condemn the Premier League champions to a fifth straight defeat in all competitions.
James Maddison marked his 28th birthday with two first-half goals before Pedro Porro scored against his former club, with Brennan Johnson completing the rout.
Defeat meant the end of City's 52-game unbeaten home run and left them on a losing streak unlike anything else Guardiola has experienced since arriving in Manchester in 2016.
They also remain five points adrift of Premier League leaders Liverpool, with Arne Slot's side still to play this weekend.
"In this moment we are fragile defensively," Guardiola told Sky Sports.
"We started really well as normal but we could not score and then after that we conceded. After that we conceded some more which is difficult for our emotions right now."
The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss, who only this week signed a two-year contract extension that will keep him at the Etihad until 2027, added: "In eight years we have never lived this kind of situation.
"Now we have to live it and break it winning the next games, especially the next one. Now we see things in one way, maybe in a few weeks we see it differently."
