    A beaten Pep Guardiola taunted goading Liverpool fans with a reference to his haul of six Premier League titles as Manchester City were dealt another major blow in their hunt for a seventh.

    Guardiola’s side saw their winless run extended to seven games as they suffered yet another league defeat in a 2-0 reverse at Anfield.
