This season is entirely different for Manchester City because they've failed in major phases this season, watching them having a losing streaks is definitely something to talk about because they're weigh out of the league. This is a big slam on Pep Guardiola reputation as manager, this is the first time for an elite team managed by Pep Guardiola having recorded defeats 4 times in a row. This is happening and the earlier Pep Guardiola spots his problem, the better for the team and supporters. Manchester City have reunited with the current players and Pep Guardiola sorting out possible means to get the team settled this season.

How do you guys conclude with coach reputation been on the line? Guardiola has been with Manchester City since 2016 if I remember correctly, he won some leagues, sometimes he win the domestic leagues and sometimes he doesn't win anything and the team doesn't do anything because of what he has shown in Barcelona before he was appointed in Manchester, even now is just one of the minor phase in football, you don't expect a team to be too good every season, even machine efficiency worn out with time talk more of human being.

Last season was similar to this, they fall out of the line but came but the only difference between now and then was Arsenal was at the top last season and they later fall out of the top of the table while Liverpool are the one leading the race now. The question is will Liverpool also fall down as the season continues? Nobody can tell but I know Guardiola wouldn't give up until the last match round of 38.

Guardiola has indeed accompanied Manchester City for quite a long time, as the team succeeded in becoming one of the strongest teams in the Premier League and Europe. They won several league trophies under his guidance, making history by winning the treble in 2022-23. Guardiola is not only results-oriented but focuses more on the process of building a team; it has to be a unique and consistent playing style. His contract will soon expire; this may be his last season with City. It would be rather unfair to bring such a long, successful journey to its end if not for somewhat satisfactory results.

In contrast, Liverpool has been much more consistent this season. With improved stability and a more mature composition from the squad, they might just continue to press the title race right down to the closing weeks. Which is quite something, given that both Guardiola and Klopp are known as two of the most intense coaches who will push each other all the way until the end of the season.
