Guardiola, on the other hand, emerged after halftime to produce the kind of performance that had eluded them in recent games.
Alvarez and Haaland scored twice in as many minutes to tie the game, before Mahrez put the hosts ahead just after the hour mark to complete an incredible comeback.
Guardiola then claimed that his team's lack of desire was due to them becoming far too comfortable at the top of the Premier League, citing Arsenal as an example that should be followed.
