Manchester City suffer their first defeat of the Premier League campaign to leave them five points behind leaders Liverpool, reports Goal.

Pep Guardiola refused to criticise Manchester City side after their shock 3-2 defeat at Norwich City, saying they are the same players that stopped him being known as ‘Fraudiola’.

City’s performance was riddled with individual errors, reminiscent of the Catalan’s first season in the Premier League when he struggled to impose his playing style.

It earned him the nickname ‘Fraudiola’ with some rival fans, who claimed his philosophy wouldn’t work in England as it had in Spain and Germany.
