ButFA rules prohibit managers from speaking about officials before games and has sought an explanation from the Spaniard over the matter.Guardiola has until 6pm on Thursday to respond and, if chargedand found guilty, is likely to receive a warning and/or a financial punishment.Taylor is from the Manchester suburb of Wythenshawe, which was an issue for some City fans due to the area’s proximity to Old Trafford.However, he is a declared Altrincham fan and the Premier League had no issues appointing him for the clash between City and Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium.Guardiola spoke about Taylor when he was asked a direct question about the official during his pre-match press conference on Sunday.“He is going to try to do the best job, like we try as managers and football players,” Guardiola said.“Hopefully they can make good decisions for both sides and (it will) be a good game – all parts of Europe are going to watch us. The referee doesn’t want to make a mistake (because) he knows people all around the world are going to watch him.“But if he is a fan of United or City? Anybody can be a fan of whoever he wants. No problem.”Manchester City moved 12 points ahead of their neighbours3
