But the 51-year-old has told his players to use their pain from Madrid to drive them to the Prem title.

los ciudad de Manchester boss left his squad alone for a couple of days to come to terms with Wednesday’s devastating Champions League exit.

And he is convinced their semi-final “tragedy” in the Bernabeu can make them stronger as they look to hang on to their one-point lead over Liverpool at the top.

Guardiola dicho: “What we lived in Madrid will help us as a club and as a team in the future.

“People now don’t realise it but I tell you — it’s good for us.

“The worst is not being there in the final and living it, it’s watching it. I would love to be there — but it will be better in the future.

“Now it feels like a tragedy but there will be good memories.”

Pep decided not to address his stars after Real Madrid struck twice in just over 80 seconds at the death to send their semi-final second leg to extra-time — where Karim Benzema’s penalty put them out.

“It is just a question of time, sleep as well as possible and think of the next target.”

The Spaniard said: “Maybe I’m not good enough to help the team to do it.

“Nobody knows what would have happened with other players or managers. Accept it.

“We have a big challenge. We have the season in our hands.”
