Guardiola rues Man City’s ‘wasteful’ finishing but is pleased to hand out no festive 'gifts'

Pep Guardiola admits that “the finishing was wasteful” in Manchester City’s 2-0 win over Fulham, with there still room for improvement from a side looking to recapture the Premier League title.

The Blues eased their way to another three points on home soil against the Cottagers, with the damage done inside 26 minutes.

Raheem Sterling opened the scoring before going on to win a record-setting penalty that allowed Kevin De Bruyne to double City’s lead.
