The Citizens drew with Blues 1-1 at their home at Etihad Stadium last weekend on Saturday as this ended their eleven match winning run in all competitions.
Pep Guardiola seems to be contented with what he seeing from his team.
Having drawn with Chelsea in the Premier League match at Etihad Stadium with Rodri's late equaliser in the eighty-three minute marked City's eleven match winning run in all competitions.
Manchester City take the third position in the Premier League table with two points behind Arsenal and four points behind the table leaders Liverpool as they host a game in hand with Brentford tomorrow.
Guardiola talks about their draw match against in a press conference: “The last five, 10 minutes first half, (and) in the second half, we were in our best level.
“But I know the standards we have, that we create to be there, for what we have done in the past, and I understand completely the doubts for the people but what I am seeing, I’m more than satisfied.
“I’ll give credit to Chelsea, who created problems, not just because in some actions we were not good. But in general when you analyse the game, we were more than decent.
“But I know our standards, and you demand our standards, for what we have done in the past. I know it’s not easy to sustain it. For a long, long, long time we did it.
“We were 11 games winning, and the people say ‘they are not going to lose any other game’. So now, just for one draw…when for 55, 60 minutes, we were who we are.”
Guardiola added: “You demand to us all the time, the only team, because we achieve what we have achieved. We have to live with that. We know that. We know how difficult it is, we know it. It’s you that believes it’s easy, not us.”
And when then asked if people demanding perfection every game was the price of success, he said: “Absolutely – I had experience at my previous clubs, especially Barcelona.
“It’s an honour. Go for it. But no effect – we know what it is and we have to continue doing what we try. It’s normal.
“In the beginning was a lack of consistency, and I said it’s how we behave in many, many things in how we perform and I demand, I’m the first to demand myself, the team do it during in 95 minutes, knowing it’s impossible.
“The reality is since we lost against Aston Villa (on December 6) we didn’t lose one game (in 15), and in the (two) games we drew, we were better.
“Are we going to win the Premier League? I don’t know. But still we are there and this is why we continue.”
Pep also clarified that Jack Grealish and Josko Gvardiol will not be available tomorrow as he was also asked about Kylian Mbappe's report in Spain that one of the Paris St Germain star's delegates had a conference with City the previous week.
Pep Guardiola said with a smile: “I think he’s quite good – he has a future! He’s really, really good.”
