however I heard people saying that they saw a picture of Pep Guardiola on social media with a lot of bruise on his face could it be true?.

I am guessing this is the image you're referring to. I was wondering how come about those bruises too when I first saw it last night on ESPN. Could this image really be truth?

This is exactly the image I'm talking about, I'm actually as curious as you, I actually want to no what happened to Pep Guardiola because he did not fought with anybody on the field and the bruises did not look like something that happens unintentional because there is blood on his nose, perhaps those that listen to his interview after the match will have more knowledge or idea about it because I no that media will certainly ask him to explain what happened because from this image it looks very real, however it seems Pep Guardiola would be staying more two years after his contract in Manchester City.

I was also shocked by what happened to Pep because on his face it looked like it was real, but after I searched on the internet I finally found out that according to the news it was Pep himself who did it, maybe because he was annoyed with Manchester City who always didn't win many of their matches. and according to the news, Pep was the one who hurt himself using his nails.

but of course I think it's natural for Pep to do that because usually Manchester City always performs well and rarely loses and of course it's rare to see Manchester City's performance like this. But of course, I can only hope that Manchester City's performance will improve and I hope that the next match will probably be a match that Manchester City wins and that Manchester City will end their streak without winning. Honestly, I'm worried that Pep will do that again in the next match if Manchester City doesn't win. Yes, hopefully Pep can be calmer in the next match and hopefully he can control his emotions.

Of course now Pep has extended his contract with Manchester City. Hopefully Pep can improve Manchester City so that it is even better and of course there is still plenty of time for Pep to improve Manchester City's performance.

Mbappe is not fulfilling expectations and I think that Ancelotti is still taken by surprise because he must have thought that this is going to be the next Ronaldo, but Mbappe isn't. He is average at the moment and now he loses his nerves and misses penalties in the most important games. It's a downtrend and yes he scores goals in La Liga here and there, but this is not what they want from him. They want him to be this incredibly deadly striker that keeps the opponent's defense busy for the whole game. But sometimes you can't see him for 3-5 minutes at all.
I think Mbappe's mentality is too burdened by the huge expectations that many people have for him and this seems to have an effect on his mentality on the field. Just look at the look on Mbappe's face during the match. Always seems tense or nervous. I don't see any calm in his game. Different from Mbappe when he was still playing at PSG. I think he is too burdened with the high hopes of everyone who demands that he become a prominent football star according to everyone's expectations. This is different from Cristiano Ronaldo, who has a very strong mentality. In fact, he always seems unaffected by any criticism about himself and instead he always seems to be more enthusiastic about proving that he is indeed great. I'm sure Mbappe has extraordinary skills but I suspect he has problems regarding his own confidence at the moment.

This could be a possibility, but is it reasonable to assume that a player of his class can't handle expectations? He has played an amazing World Cup at the age of 19 I think and he was by far one of the best players there. If a player can handle a World Cup and become the champion and be a key player for the French national team, I am sure he should have no problems to handle the heat at Real Madrid. Though you might be right, but it would be on the top of my list of issues that I think could come into question here. You never know, but to me this looks not as if the burden is too high.

I have not actually heard about coach hurting himself because of couple of matches he has been losing, if he deliberately did it to himself then he needs help from psychologist who focus on such area, I no that Pep Guardiola is someone who get emotional but I never thought of him that way, however having win so many trophies in Manchester City should have been a thing of joy that should have supersede the angers he is feeling right now because if he should feel this way because of the current performance of Manchester City imagine what he would have done if he was to be in the shoe of Manchester United coach.
But in the interview after the match he seemed to say it was done by himself. But if we pay attention to Pep's expression during the match then we can see that he occasionally scratches his head. And I think he did it quite hard, especially when he saw that Man City kept conceding in the remaining time of the match. He probably just felt annoyed with what was happening on the field at that time because it was hard to believe that Man City had conceded 3 goals in just about 15 minutes and caused them to have to settle for a draw. Well that's really quite upsetting to us. So I understand how Pep feels.

If I remember correctly, Guardiola scratched his head after conceding the first goal. It was like a harbinger of the other goals. In the end, they conceded three goals in the match and drew the match. No one expected such a bad result from a team like Manchester City. The possibility of a three-goal lead and a draw was really low. Feyenoord should also be congratulated for this. They never gave up the game and believed in a draw. They fully deserved the point they earned.

Who was disappointed that Man City ended up with a draw? How unlucky this club is.

Imagine Man City already 3 goals ahead but they conceded 3 more goals, this is like an underdog team that is not in stability.

Their defence was so bad that several times the opponent's attack was passed and it became the 3rd goal, plus this is the only team that is relied on in parlay, instead this team brings to the abyss all bets and finally fails.
I was disappointed! I was disappointed to watch the match between Manchester City and Feyenoord end in a draw. City were leading by three goals with not less than 25 mins left, and they lost control of the game. It amazes me how a team like City could easily lose a 3 goal lead. It’s enough to drive Pep crazy, no wonder he was scratching his head and face so hard. Many bettors likely lost a lot of money, as they would have played Manchester City to win the match. This results raises concern about their ability to maintain focus and win games, especially against teams they are expected to dominate.

I think he deliberately decided to hurt himself considering the fact that his team has been on a losing spree for the last couple of matches and the draw he had wasn't his expectation. However if this images are true then Pep Guardiola needs some psychological evaluation because somebody needs a therapy here,

Turns out it only took one Conor Bradley to shut Mbappe down. We still forgive Moh Salah for missing a penalty, but I'm not sure Madrid fans will forgive Mbappe for missing a penalty. 3 points brought Liverpool back to the top of the table and now 2 leagues have been secured by Liverpool perfectly (Top of the Premier League and Top of the Champion League). A very special win for Liverpool as the last time they won was in 2009.
Mbappé is being criticized because he was not good throughout the match. He also made some mistakes that prevented the team from increasing in the attacking area. He could not make passes that were suitable for the conditions that the players were making forward. Real Madrid got lost on the field. Liverpool in England showed once again with this victory that they are the leaders of the Champions League. I cannot think that there will be a team that can beat them with this game. They have achieved an incredibly good harmony.

When it became clear that Vinicius and Rodrygo would miss this match, I realized that they would have big problems in attack, about their defense it was known even earlier. Ancelotti had to experiment, he gave Mbappe the opportunity to play in his previously usual position, but it seems that he has already forgotten how it was, because he played very poorly. It is difficult to beat such Liverpool, and considering all the problems that Real had, it was clear that the match would be difficult for them.

Ancelotti's attempt to change the formation in that match was a big failure, he did not live up to the fans' expectations, yesterday's defeat at Anfield clearly suggests that in January Real Madrid must recruit some players because if they rely on the existing squad, defeat after defeat will happen again. Madrid are under great pressure this season, I wonder if they can get at least one trophy this season.?

Real Madrid's Champions League performance is a complete disappointment. They lost 2-0 away to Liverpool yesterday and they are in the 24th place in the points table with 2 wins in 5 matches.
In the remaining 3 matches, Salzburg is an easy match on paper, but the Atalanta match and the Brest match are away and not easy.
I think that Brest, which I watched in front of Barça, is not an easy target and they play very well at home in the Champions League.
Real Madrid may bid farewell to the Champions League at the beginning of this year.

I always say it, I say it again, Mbappe was the wrong transfer. The mood of the team was bad. In my eyes, there has never been and will never be such a quality football player. Just like Neymar, he is a balloon. Neither Ronaldo nor Lionel Messi.

I think Endrick probably deserves to play in the first 11 instead of Mbappé. We can say that Mbappé played the worst match of his career yesterday. He was quite ineffective against Liverpool and also missed a penalty. It would not be wrong to say that yesterday's match was a nightmare for Real Madrid. If Mbappé played the leading role in this, the rest of the team were the other factors. Also, I did not see any players playing well other than Camavinga.
Mbappe played very badly indeed but it does not mean that Endrick is more suitable for the position left by Vinicius, I think what Ancelotti did when he placed Mbappe on the right wing was a form of proof of the criticism that said Mbappe was not placed in his own position so that Mbappe could not show his best performance, and now it has been proven and after the match Ancelotti told reporters not to ever criticize who deserves to be played in his position, because he knows better.

Rel Madrid's defeat was very surprising in my opinion and this further confirms that they are very very bad this season, and Mbappe is one of the players who deserves to be blamed, he did not meet the expectations of the fans and even since his arrival Mbappe has not made much contribution to Real Madrid.

Mbappe is not fulfilling expectations and I think that Ancelotti is still taken by surprise because he must have thought that this is going to be the next Ronaldo, but Mbappe isn't. He is average at the moment and now he loses his nerves and misses penalties in the most important games. It's a downtrend and yes he scores goals in La Liga here and there, but this is not what they want from him. They want him to be this incredibly deadly striker that keeps the opponent's defense busy for the whole game. But sometimes you can't see him for 3-5 minutes at all.
Last year, when Joselu was there, Real Madrid seemed to be playing better. Because there was no player at the center. This year, Mbappé is at the center and they try to send the chances to him. He often wastes the chances. Considering the criticisms this year, maybe it would have been better for his career if he stayed at Paris Saint-Germain. He doesn't play very logically in such a game at Real Madrid's level. Also, if Ancelotti is to be criticized, he should be able to take Mbappé out of the game if he is playing badly. Being patient with him for 90 minutes drove many people crazy in front of the TV like me.
It's not because Mbappe is a center player that led to Real Madrid poor performance this season. You should note that there is one major player in Real Madrid that left the club last season, that's one of the problem Real Madrid is having because his position is still vacant, and the vacuum has always been felt in all their matches since the beginning of the season. Toni Kross was the engine room of Real Madrid all those years, but this season he is no more. Also, you should know that Madrid first eleven are not complete in that match, which will always affect their performance. Mbappe was the only player Real Madrid had to turn the game around yesterday, but he couldn't.

Joselu was not an important player for Real Madrid last season but his presence could be a differentiator while Mbappe did not look like a star player because there were so many opportunities that were missed from him to score goals. In fact, we can see that his appearance does not show class at all and fail to carry out a penalty execution when getting a chance. I see that there are many problems that occur now and especially the front lines that do not play with good performance so they lose opportunities.

Liverpool showed themselves as a strong team this season and they played far more dominant so that they managed to master the game. Liverpool did not make a mistake even though Mo Salah also failed to execute a penalty but overall Liverpool's appearance in the match was indeed much better.

Dortmund is in 4th place but everybody is talking about 24th place Madrid.  Grin Finally Dortmund stringed together a bunch of good performances, in league play and UCL. Sure Zagreb is a team you should win at but after a combined 6 losses in a row in away games it was refreshing to finally see BVB having a dominating performance outside of their home stadium.
I hope they can finally take this momentum and do something with it, only the timing is miserable because they facing Bayern Munich this upcoming weekend, which couldn't be a more difficult task. Well, at least they are playing at home so there is a small chance to make this game successful, but I have my doubts.  Cry

I am guessing this is the image you're referring to. I was wondering how come about those bruises too when I first saw it last night on ESPN. Could this image really be truth?
Yeah, the image you uploaded having Pep Guardiola having facial marks on his face is true. Pep Guardiola is having self-afflicted injuries on himself with his finger and nail. This comes as the result of Manchester City's poor performance, which Pep Guardiola is not taking any longer because it's beyond him, having his center players absent in matches.



However, Manchester City fans are worried about Pep Guardiola's health. They are advising him to take a break from football, and he also needs help. You can read further here
Seeing the reaction of Man City fans who are worried about Pep Guardiola's condition, it can be said that the fans still love this coach even though their club has experienced bad results many times, this is indeed very painful not only for the fans but Pep also feels great pain seeing the team he has led so far experience bad results that he has never felt during his time as the club's coach. But even so, he should not hurt himself because after all, defeat is part of football so far he has given his best for the team, maybe now he has to start testing his abilities again and provide a different formula in order to restore his club's performance again.

AC Milan already won their match with three goals to only two from their opponent. It was more like an easy game for them to earn three points. They were leading with three goals to one and I wonder how they allowed their opponent to add one more goal. It was already in the 88th minute of the game before the goal came. Even as they are the best in the game, a little more time might have been a pressure for them as their opponent will try to add more goals and get an equalizer to level the game.

Atletico Madrid were on the most best side today. Their opponent was so easy for them to score plenty of goals tonight. They beat Sparta Prague with six goals to none, it looks so easy for them because they’re very much better than them in all ramifications as far as football and the champions league is concerned. Three points more to them as they battle through to make it to the next round of the champions league competition.
The game against Slovan Bratislava was not an easy match. It was a tough one, it may look easy because AC Milan managed to capitalize on their opponent's weakness to score those early goals. Although the AC Milan won the game, it doesn't mean that they had it easy. Instead the 3-2 scoresheet highlighted the resilience of Slovan Bratislava.

On the other hand, I agree that Atletico Madrid had the upper hand in their game. Sparta Prague is a lesser team compared to Atletico Madrid in terms of squad depth and overall quality. Atletico Madrid performance was very impressive, they showed they were in a different class. This kind of performance will surely boost their confidence heading into the next round.

 Kelleher is a good keeper. He was able to stop a penalty in the premier league when Liverpool played Southampton and even though they still scored, the important thing to note is, he's good at stopping penalty spot kicks and the fact that Mbappe was yet another player to have his shot blocked just proves how good he is and not just the fact that the Frenchman is a flop.
 At PSG, Mbappe was like a god but now that he is at Real Madrid, he needs to work his way up and it's like there's too much pressure on him simply because there's also too much expectations from him as well.
The fact that Vini jnr wasn't in the game yesterday also added to keep him off balance and it just showed everyone that Mbappe isn't as good as many call him out to be since it's Vinicius that usually creates opportunities for him.

Liverpool's performance this season is very impressive, they are more excited in the domestic league and they are also very excited in the UCL. Although I, as a Real Madrid fan, will congratulate Liverpool for scoring great goals and their strong attack has successfully brought them victory. However, at the moment, Real Madrid is not able to improve their game, but rather the team is going to be more normal due to their players getting injured. Liverpool is very happy to beat Real Madrid this season because it is incredible to beat a strong team, and after beating Real Madrid, Liverpool is now at the top of the Champions League. The way Liverpool is improving their performance this season and showing strong performance in every match, I think they will be the champions of their domestic league and will have a considerable role in the Champions League.

There is no doubt that Liverpool performed well in this match. Liverpool won this home match by dominating. It was very difficult for Liverpool to dominate and win against a big team like Real Madrid. But due to Arne Slot's excellent match strategy, Liverpool won the match by dominating. Liverpool is performing well in the Premier League and Champions League. In both places, the top spot of the table is occupied by Liverpool.

It was very important for Real Madrid to get points in this match. But Liverpool failed to win this important match too. Real Madrid is in 24th place in the Champions League points table. Madrid has lost 3 matches out of 5 matches. Real Madrid has been able to get only 6 points. Also, Madrid is not in the top spot of the La Liga table.

Can't believe to see Real Madrid currently at 24th rank. Cheesy

But I'm sure they will qualify, they have match against Salzburg and Brest, Real Madrid will win.

Rel Madrid's defeat was very surprising in my opinion and this further confirms that they are very very bad this season, and Mbappe is one of the players who deserves to be blamed, he did not meet the expectations of the fans and even since his arrival Mbappe has not made much contribution to Real Madrid.
His mistake is he move from Ligue 1 to La Liga, if he move to Premier League, he might be not shocked how high the pressure. Choosing to join Barcelona or Real Madrid, it means you must be the best at all cost.

Now it's interesting to see whether Mbappe will be put in the bench, Ancelotti get fired, Mbappe move to other teams, or Mbappe will survive in Real Madrid.
