(Reuters) - SOUTHAMPTON 1 MANCHESTER CITY 3Manchester City bounced back from two consecutive defeats to beat Southampton 3-1 on Sunday and cut the gap on Premier League leaders Liverpool to seven points before the top two meet on Thursday. Liverpool are not going to give us that amount of chances," warned Guardiola. "We had 30 exceptional minutes, made chances, we conceded a goal and when Saints were at their best we scored our second one. Defeat left Southampton 17th in the table on 15 points, the same as 18th placed Burnley, who beat West Ham United 2-0 on Sunday. City, who had suffered three league defeats in four matches, might have wobbled again had it been given but regained composure to sweep to a comfortable victory.
