Pep Guardiola said: "We have to find a way to play better. We have to start winning games. We don't win enough games in a row. It is what it is. But we have to do something because it will not come from the sky."
Pressed on Ederson's role in the goal, he said: "It is what it is. I never blame a player. I didn't see the action, but it happened. With 10 games left, Forest are in the position that they are because they are a good team."
