Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has accused Jose Mourinho of being among those who want the Premier League champions to be relegated.
Guardiola was responding to Mourinho’s comments that he won three titles “fairly and cleanly.” Mourinho had previously held up three fingers to opposing fans while managing Manchester United, before being fired in December 2018 following a loss to Liverpool.
“Guardiola said something about me… he won six trophies and I won three, but I won fairly and cleanly,” Mourinho said. “If I lost, I want to congratulate my opponent because he was better than me. I don’t want to win by dealing with 150 court cases.”
Guardiola responded, “He’s another one in a huge list that wants the team to be in… I don’t know, in League One or in the Conference. I would say to Jose the same – we are innocent until proven guilty and, after that, we will see what happens. It is what it is.”
In midweek, Manchester City secured a 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest, ending a seven-game winless streak across competitions.
This weekend, Manchester City will face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday, December 7th, aiming to build on their recent win.
