Pep Guardiola has taken the blame for Manchester City's alarming dip in form and accepts that he will be sacked if he cannot meet expectations at the Etihad.
City have only won four times in the last 15 games but Guardiola is refusing to compromise the principles that brought him success at Barcelona and Bayern Munich.
However, the Spaniard acknowledged that he will be treated no differently from any other coach in the world if he is unable to satisfy the ambitions of Sheikh Mansour and chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak.
'As coaches, if you don't win then something is going to happen,' said Guardiola.
