In the past, the club that always dominated the league every year, so it is not surprising to see the conditions experienced by Man City this season, being in second place in the Premier League standings does not mean they are weak, but this condition often occurs in big clubs, we can take Real Madrid for example, just like what happened to Man City this season, in this slump phase there must be a reason from some of their mainstay players who are not in their best form, so it is only natural that the defeat experienced by Man City in the last few weeks has had a bad impact in the eyes of everyone, especially fans who do not like Man City.
It seems that you have to look back at the current Premier League standings because for now Manchester City is outside the UCL zone or in other words is no longer in the top four zone. So if you say Manchester City is in second place in the Premier League at this time, that is absolutely wrong because currently that position is still occupied by Arsenal. And one more thing is that there is no need to compare Manchester City's condition in the Premier League with Real Madrid's condition in La Liga because basically it will never be the same even though both teams are teams that have previously won their respective leagues.
