Pep Guardiola was frustrated with his Manchester City team for complicating their match against West Ham, strongly stating that City are ‘not back.’ Despite this, City achieved their second consecutive win and extended their unbeaten streak to three games, with Savinho providing a hat-trick of assists. Erling Haaland netted his 20th and 21st goals of the season, and then Phil Foden added another as West Ham struggled. Guardiola was questioned about whether City are ‘back’ after their two victories this week, but he emphasized that his team is still not at their best and is not performing well, as he gave an impressive press conference. “You evaluate based on the results.” Over the years, we observed our progress. “We aren’t at our best,” he stated. “We won, we are so happy. However, you evaluate the outcomes, and the performance was poor. When we perform well, we are aware of it.
