Pep Guardiola branded Mauricio Pochettino’s withering attack a mistake and claimed he has never disrespected Tottenham Hotspur.
Pochettino launched an astonishing tirade towards the Manchester City manager on Friday, infuriated by Guardiola labelling Spurs ‘the Harry Kane team’ after victory against Chelsea.
Tottenham’s boss had been stewing over that remark during the international break and Guardiola passionately defended his comments.
‘I think Mauricio has made a mistake,’ Guardiola said.
