Pep Guardiola has apologised after Manchester City fans sang chants referencing football stadium tragedies against Liverpool, but he does not feel the rivalry between the clubs has become toxic .

Does he need to score? Well, he needs to play well, as he did. He needs to score above all for himself, not the team.
The team is doing well. I understand very well that, for the strikers, it s very important to score. But I ask my strikers not just to sco…
