There is no karma, I just believe that this team is in trouble and I think every team has experienced such a time. It's just that the moment might be too bad for Man City who were previously very strong to suddenly be so down.
Not much has changed from Pep's squad, but somehow the performance and strategy used seem to have been read and easy to anticipate by the opponent. I hope they don't stay down in this situation for too long, there is a moment when they can rise and everything will return to normal. Today they will face United, we will see if Pep can return Man City to its peak performance.

Only a few people consider Man City poor performance as Ballon d'Or karma, in my opinion it has nothing to do with it at all because their quality of play declined before the Ballon d'Or winner was announced. Almost all teams experience ups and downs in performance, and Man City is currently experiencing this moment, even though the majority of the squad they currently have is still filled with players who won the UCL. Injuries to several key players could be a strong reason, but overall the players are not in their best momentum, perhaps a change in playing pattern is needed by bringing in several other quality players so they can compete again in the hunt for the championship title.

I also think they should do it. Bringing in new players will give a refreshment to the squad. Of course, Pep will have an important role in changing the game scheme of Man City so that it is not predicted by the opponent anymore. As well as the players they will bring in, they must have quality and be able to quickly adapt to the team. I am sure Pep also already has some names to suggest to the club to immediately approach.

This season is an unfavorable season for City and I don't think that they'll get any trophy if they don't wake up from their slumber. I am also waiting to see their performance in this evening derby match against United. The bookies made them the favorite, and I hope they don't disappoint their fans and gamblers betting on them.

They still have a chance for the Champions League. that is if they can make sure to qualify for the next round. Now they are in a bad situation, but they can still try to compete in the next round. Hopefully, they are lucky enough to qualify.
