The journalists at yesterday’s Manchester City press conference, ahead of today’s Premier League clash away at Cardiff City managed to bamboozle Pep Guardiola when they quizzed him about Benjamin Mendy’s injury.
Journo’s can be like a dog with a bone – they won’t let go especially when the subject fails to answer their questions satisfactorily. And yesterday was no exception.
Can we have a Benjamin Mendy injury update asked one?
It was as if there was a timeline between them and Pep.
The City boss wriggled slightly in his chair, breathed in and came out with almost one line answers.
