City must stay calm - Navas


Despite their heavy loss to Tottenham, Manchester City
must stay calm – according to Jesus Navas.

Manchester City attacker Jesus Navas urged his team not to
panic after their 4-1 loss to Tottenham on Saturday.

Flying early in the season, City suffered a second straight
Premier League defeat despite going ahead through Kevin De
Bruyne.

Navas, who came on in the second half at White Hart Lane, said
it was too early to overreact, with City just a point behind
league-leading rivals Manchester United.

"I think that the season is very long. We are working well, we
are up there and we've got to continue," the Spain international
told City TV.

"We've still got a lot of games ahead of us and we will do a
good job as always."

De Bruyne had put City ahead with a 25th-minute opener, only
for Eric Dier to level just before the break for the hosts.
Navas said the equaliser, which came despite Kyle Walker being
offside in the lead-up, was a cruel blow for Manuel Pellegrini's
team.

"We were doing a great job," he said.

"We scored first, I think we were performing very well, but the
goal right before half-time, I think that was very painful for us
and it was hard to come back."
