Pep Guardiola admits that his Manchester City side were not as good as Tottenham Hotspur in Sunday's 2-0 Premier League defeat at White Hart Lane.

Pep Guardiola has admitted that his Manchester City side were not as good as Tottenham Hotspur as they clashed at White Hart Lane on Sunday.

The visitors lost their 100% record in the Premier League as an Aleksandar Kolarov own goal and a Dele Alli strike gave Spurs a 2-0 win in North London.

Guardiola was candid after the game, telling BBC Sport: "They were better. We were not in the right positions so congratulations to them.

"[Losing] is part of the game, part of our job. I never thought that we would not lose a game, you can't imagine that. It is normal to the process, sometimes it happens and it can help us improve.

"I am not here for the talk around me, I am here to do my job. It is October, you cannot imagine my team is already done. I am new here. So far it has been an amazing performance but we need more, we have to work more, it is what it is."

Man City remain top of the Premier League table with 18 points from seven games, though Spurs are just a point behind them in second.
