Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola has rejected claims that he is the world's best manager and revealed that he is going through his most difficult spell since joining the German side in 2013.
Guardiola's men are currently 10 points clear at the top of the Bundesliga, but were beaten 2-0 at home to Borussia Monchengladbach last time out.
"I am not the best coach in the world," Guardiola told reporters. "I am only here to help my players. "I am very motivated and have a lot of faith in my players.
"I am going through the most difficult period at Bayern since I got here. These next few months are a huge challenge to me.
"April is a decisive month. Every game is like a final. The players must understand that we demand even more now. We are the ones to blame if we don't win."
Bayern travel to Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.
