Guardiola zei dat hij het gevoel had dat hij geen andere keuze had dan namens City als hoofdtrainer zijn stem te laten horen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cIk moet mijn club verdedigen,\u201d<\/strong> zei Guardiola, waarbij hij een directe boodschap richting Hallam stuurde terwijl hij uitlegde waarom hij zijn zorgen openlijk uitte.<\/p>\n<p>De situatie is inmiddels verder ontwikkeld, aangezien Hallam niet is opgenomen voor de komende ronde Premier League-wedstrijden. De afwezigheid van de scheidsrechter volgt op de aandacht die Guardiola's reactie na de wedstrijd kreeg.<\/p>\n<p>Guardiola heeft vaak gesproken over de druk rondom belangrijke beslissingen in het topvoetbal, maar hij hield zich deze keer niet in.
