Pep Guardiola hits back at doubters after Man City bounce back from Norwich defeat

Pep Guardiola hailed his fantastic Manchester City side as they bounced back to launch their Champions League campaign in style. They beat Shakhtar Donetsk 3-0 to erase the memory of their shock 3-2 defeat at Norwich in the Premier League last weekend. Guardiola said: “All the guys were fantastic. We've started with a good result and a good performance, better than last year, when we lost. "To start with three points away is so important. It's in our hands to reach the last 16. "When you win, the manager makes the right decisions, when you lose the wrong decisions. “We lost one game in eight months and we will not doubt who these players are. It's a joy to be their manager.”
