Pep Guardiola has admitted the demands of winning the treble did take a toll on his Manchester City players PBA
City were knocked out of the Carabao Cup and suffered rare back-to-back Premier League defeats prior to the recent international break PBA
They got back to winning ways with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Brighton on Saturday but Guardiola concedes there has been a natural drop in intensity after the remarkable end to last season PBA
The City manager said: “The treble had an influence on all of us, me included PBA
“So now we need to be there, close, month by month, to arrive in the final decision moments at the end of the season close to the opponents to try it again PBA
“I said many times, no-one has won four (Premier Leagues) in a row, never ever PBA
That shows how difficult it is, but now it’s important to be there, especially in the Champions League, qualify for the next round in this period and after we can just focus on the Premier League PBA
That is the target PBA
”City’s success has also brought increased expectations, particularly on Erling Haaland, who scored a remarkable 52 goals in an outstanding first season at the club last term PBA
By his extraordinary standards, the Norwegian’s recent three-game run without a goal constituted a barren spell but he ended that ‘drought’ with a clinical strike against the Seagulls PBA
“Yes the expectations are so high but he’s handled it really well,” said Guardiola PBA
“He knows he could have scored even more goals in the nine Premier League games we have played PBA
”Guardiola rested goalkeeper Ederson at the weekend following the Brazilian’s exertions during the international break PBA
Stefan Ortega took his place PBA
Guardiola said: “It was just for the fact that the travel from Brazil, it’s a long time PBA
Of course it’s happened many times but he played two games there and he was so so tired PBA
“Normally I like to play Ortega in the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup but we are out of the Carabao Cup, and sometimes it’s good for Eddy to rest a bit and refresh the mind PBA
”Ortega was pleased to get the opportunity and hopes there will be plenty more PBA
The German said: “I was excited when Pep told me that I was starting PBA
I’m always waiting to get a chance to get a bit more game time PBA
“Eddy is playing really well this season, he started really good, but I try to keep pushing him every day in training sessions PBA
“I think I deserved to start PBA
I’m ambitious so of course I’m not happy to sit on the bench, but we are in a team PBA
“Sometimes it is tough but this is my job – to be there when the team needs me and to keep pushing Eddy every day PBA

It’s pretty illustrious company PBA
The World Cup semi-final PBA between New Zealandand Argentina may come to be a contest best forgotten, but All Blacks wing Will Jordan will remember it as the night where he joined a group of try-scoring greats - and should have surpassed them PBA
With a hat-trick in Paris, Jordan became the fourth member of an exclusive club, in alongside Bryan Habana, Julian Savea and Jonah Lomu as the only men to have scored eight tries in a single tournament PBA
With 31 tries in 30 Tests, it is a statistical probability that the All Black takes the record outright in the final PBA
Had Richie Mo’unga elected to pass rather than dummy, Jordan would already have it PBA
Late on at the Stade de France, the game long since decided and New Zealand electing to play with 14 men in a show of their superiority, Jordan was had clear run ahead of him with the Argentina defence narrowed PBA
Jordan bellowed for the ball; his fly half ignored him, going it alone in search of a try of his own to leave Jordan left with arms and mouth agape PBA
It was about the only foot that Mo’unga put wrong in a performance of all-round excellence from the All Blacks PBA
The win may have been built on forward might but there is no doubt that a diverse, dynamic back three caught the eye PBA
The trio of Mark Tele’a, Beauden Barrett and Jordan possess complementary skillsets, equally adept under the high ball but with contrasting qualities with ball in hand PBA
“Their combination has worked well from the start of the year,” said head coach Ian Foster of his back three PBA
“We put a bit of time into that from the start of the Rugby Championship PBA
“Mark [Tele’a] was strong in the close-quarter areas PBA
It was that sort of game and he enjoys being in close PBA
He defended really well PBA
I thought Will [Jordan] showed how good he is at finishing things off PBA
Will Jordan ran in a hat-trick with New Zealand rampant in Paris (PA Wire)“I am delighted with the combination [Jordan and Tele’a] have, and then you have Beauden [Barrett] who is the glue in PBA between them PBA
He’s the communicator who connects the dots PBA
They are going good – but they are going to need to in the final PBA
”Indeed, the remarkable thing is that Jordan seems somewhat unremarkable PBA
There are plenty of other wings in the world with more obvious physical gifts but the 25-year-old, by contrast, possesses an almost ineffable sense of grace, an ability to simply glide like Fred Astaire PBA
While some of the game’s great try-scorers rely on hugging the touchline or picking their moment, Jordan is far from simply a poacher, often stepping in as a playmaker in New Zealand’s protean backline PBA
“Without the ball, he works so hard,” explained Argentina wing Mateo Carreras, generous in his praise of his opponent even in the moments after defeat PBA
“He’s everywhere on the pitch PBA
If there is a line-break, he’s there PBA
If there is a knock-on, he is there PBA
That’s why he is top class PBA
”In truth, two of Jordan’s three semi-final tries were walk-ins – they all count equally PBA
The third, though, more than made up for the simplicity of the first two scores, a magnificent thing that began on the edge of New Zealand’s 22 PBA
Jordan hit the line at the right time to take Ardie Savea’s inside pop and then carving like a speed-skater through the Argentina defence PBA
Having slowed to consider the landscape ahead of him, Jordan found the space, a clever use of the outside of his boot to nudge the ball over the final defender and get the desired spin to allow an uncontested collection and finish the job PBA
Try number 31 – of male players, only Japan’s Daisuke Ohata, against largely inferior opposition, has ever got more in their first 30 international appearances PBA
Look at the list of the top career try tallies for the All Blacks, a ladder Jordan is rapidly climbing, and a rough pattern emerges: wings making a fast-scoring start to their Test career before fading quicker than in other countries PBA
In New Zealand, there will always be a next big thing on the wing, an athlete or an artist ready to step up and step in to the try scoring breach PBA
Savea, for example, scored 45 tries in 54 games before being dropped after Rieko Ioane’s emergence at the age of 27 PBA
He has not played for his country in the six years since PBA
Sitiveni Sivivatu befell a similar fate; Joe Rokocoko did not play internationally past his 30th birthday PBA
Even Ioane has been forced to relocate and rebuild, now starring in the centres PBA
The All Blacks back three (Mark Telea, Will Jordan and Beauden Barrett) ran riot in Paris (Getty Images)Jordan’s success, though, feels sustainable PBA
He is doing all this away from his favoured position – the Crusader is a full-back at heart PBA
The 15 jersey will be his in time: the eldest Barrett brother is bound for Japan after this tournament, and Jordan will surely slide over to continue to chase down Doug Howlett’s All Black record total of 49 tries PBA
But that pursuit can wait for another day PBA
New Zealand know not yet if it will be England or South Africa in the final but they will feel it will matter not if they sustain the level they’ve found in this last two weeks PBA
“This is the dream, to be in the dance, to make the final and give ourselves an opportunity,” said scum half Aaron Smith PBA
“We’ve got a chance of winning the World Cup and that’s what you dream of as a rugby player PBA
