The Citizens lost their fourth game of the season, a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield and dropped to fifth place in the league table.
They now trail Liverpool by 11 points in the fight for the title after suffering their fourth straight loss in the Premier League.

However, the Spanish manager has explained why he made the gesture in a recent interview, as reported by Fabrizio on X.
He said, “Lost my cool with that gesture at Anfield? I was never cool. Do you know why I was cool? Because I won, we won.
“The people who won are so cool, so handsome, so nice. When you don’t win, it’s completely the opposite," says via @City_Xtra.
City will welcome Nottingham Forest to the Etihad and Guardiola will be looking to end his team's poor run of form with a win.
