I think Manchester City's next strongest opponent is Manchester United.
At this time?
After what I saw, this weekend, Man City completely dominating the game against Chelsea, despite having only scored one goal, I think that at the moment there is no really very difficult opponent for Man City in the Premier League.
I believed that Chelsea were the team that would cause the most difficulties. But he spent most of the time playing on the counterattack, and leaning against his area, without creating great opportunities. I don't see, at the moment, other teams doing what Chelsea couldn't do.
Southampton next and i wish they could give pep guardiola a surprise.
despite how manchester city dominating the whole game , they seems really struggling get into the chelsea penalty box and make an effective attempt.
tuchel has given pep guardiola a complicated counter tactics , we can see it by the only goal scored by de bruyne through a long shot and kepa weak on anticipating such shots. chelsea indeed the only team could do that to pep team
