Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has hailed his team following a 4-1 win over Liverpool on Saturday.

The Premier League champions had to come from a goal behind to win at The Etihad.

Mohamed Salah’s goal was cancelled out by Julian Alvarez in the first half, before more goals from Kevin De Bruyne, Ilkay Gundogan and Jack Grealish sealed the win.

The result takes City within five points of table toppers Arsenal.

“Minute one to minute 93 was a perfect performance – even though we concede a goal we played really well.

“They [Liverpool] always have threat on transition but we played really good. One of the best performances in my seven years.

“The players knew we weren’t playing bad. One goal down and we continued to do it and had just a bit of chat at half time and were lucky to score the second goal. But then at 2-1 the game was stable,” Guardiola said.
