Manchester city can't get to the level they were last season, winning the treble isn't something you do every year and Manchester city has lost so many important players that were key to their performance last season that it'll be very difficult for Pep Guardiola to get the boys performing as they did last season. Manchester city hasn't replaced those players that left and instead of Pep Guardiola attacking Chelsea at the press conference for spending, he should spend too that's the only way he wins games and trophy. Pep Guardiola doesn't build players, he only buys already made players and make them better with other quality players playing around them that he buys so instead of complaining about other clubs spending, he should fix his club.
Erling Haaland has been ghosting in important games and it's becoming disturbing because he can't win prestigious awards with this types of performance. The game against Newcastle was an important game and he got the lowest rating. Newcastle united currently is one of the best teams in the premier League and they have the best defense so instead of supporting Erling Haaland ghosting against them, he should be criticize so he can improve his games or very soon all his goals won't get him anywhere. We have good goal scorers but that's not what football is all about and that's why Messi is still been favoured over him for the Ballon D'or discussion because Erling Haaland has wasted all the opportunities (Finals) he had to prove himself.
Winning the treble was an all time performance that happens once in a while for Manchester City, I also doubt that would be possible this season not even next season. Kovacic was signed after IIkay Gundogan left and he's not the perfect replacement for Gundogan, he holds possession but not a risk taker and creative as IIkay Gundogan so wrong signature. Riyard Marhez also left, who's in for him non. Maybe City are currently avoiding over spending. So with Kevin and Silva lost to injuries we don't expect pass influx into the attackers like we do see.
Last season, against Newcastle United, Erling Haaland did not just score bit also contributed to the goal scored by Bernado Silva. And you expect so much from the lad who has got no Kevin De Brunye? They have a great understanding but Kevin absence means Erling wouldn't score for some games due to no creativity. Tough game against Sevilla, I expected them to be tired and fatigued. And it's very wrong to compare Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland, Haaland needs midfielder's to work for him to score but Messi is all in one.
Such Comparisons can be between players like Erling Haaland and Robert Lewandoski. Pep Guardiola lashing out on blues outrageous spending is crazy. You can just ignore but is Pochetino the right man for Chelsea or another test running of failed managers? Hahaha
