Welcome back to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where we're still waiting to hear from Pep Guardiola, whose side suffered their sixth Premier League defeat of the season this afternoon here by two goals to nil.
He's never had more defeats in a league campaign anywhere.
That gap is at 22 points.
Is there an argument, Graham, that this is now becoming Pep Guardiola's biggest ever challenge as a manager?
They're still in three cup competitions as well.
Could they clean up there?
I know we have to talk about it.
Trying to find reasons why, to use your words, they were wasteful in front of goal, which is not something that we associate with City or have done the last three seasons or more.
Could it be that their concentration is elsewhere already?
Well, let's see if we can get some answers from the manager who has emerged.
Pep Guardiola now with Geoff Shreves.
I feel a little bit relieved in a way because we were trying to find answers as to why he was holding this big inquest.
No great mysteries.
That's what we've said.
Why?
Well, that's what I was trying to understand.
They've played well today.
Let's just remind ourselves that they're the first team in Europe to score 100 goals in all competitions this season.
They've already scored 34 goals away from home.
In the circumstances of what we've seen today, I'm sure some people would describe this as a Mourinho masterclass.
