Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola has claimed the state of the pitch was a contributing factor in their failure to beat Crystal Palace after a goalless draw at Selhurst Park.The Premier League champions saw their bid to retain their title take a significant blow after missing a host of chances to break the deadlock on Monday night.Man City had 18 shots and 76 per-cent possession but could not find a way through, with Bernardo Silva squandering one of the biggest opportunities of the night, somehow skewing his effort wide from inside the six-yard box.The Catalan was satisfied with the level of performance his team produced and praised Palace for their defensive work.But the 50-year-old could not resist aiming a comment at the playing conditions after admitting the grass was “not perfect”, even if it seemed not to affect his side’s slick football."We played a really good game.

Joe Leydon Film CriticBradley Jackson’s “Facing Ryan” tells the story of an agreeable fellow from small-town Texas who married his high school sweetheart, followed his dream of playing major league baseball, pitched for four MLB teams over a 27-year career while operating a cattle ranch during off-season, set records for no-hitters and strikeouts that remain unbroken to this day, held high-profile executive positions with two of his former teams more than a decade after his retirement from the game, and currently resides on the ranch where he and his wife, the loving and supportive life partner he wed back in 1967, are frequently surrounded by their children and grandchildren.If you were to present this scenario at a pitch meeting, you’d likely be shot down for failing to hype your narrative with suspenseful setbacks, intense conflict and a slew of obstacles for your protagonist to overcome. And if you somehow managed to get your film made anyway, critics would almost surely complain about the many and varied ways credibility was stretched to the breaking point while the hero accomplished one extraordinary feat after another.
