Nashville (US) July 30 (IANS) Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola reckoned the win over fellow English Premier League (EPL) club Tottenham Hotspur in a pre-season fixture here was the best under his watch and exactly what his club lacked last season.
"We haven t dominated like today last season we were good but not in 90 minutes like that " Guardiola was quoted as saying by the Guardian after Manchester City thumped the London outfit 3-0 here on Saturday evening.
"We cannot forget which team we played. Tottenham for the most part of last season played the best football. It s pre-season but we didn t have a performance like that last season " he added.
The 46-year-old also felt that the win over Tottenham who finished second spot in the EPL last season with 86 points -- ahead of Manchester City -- will be a confidence booster for his side.
"The results are good for confidence and the way we did it our performance is good. I m so satisfied especially in the last two games " Guardiola said.
Guardiola also heaped praise on the physical presence of newly signed right-backs Kyle Walker and Danilo.
"You have the quality with Kyle and Danilo they have that physicality " the former German football club Bayern Munich coach said.
