Yes, I was actually surprised when Arteta was able to make Arsenal better at the moment than Man City because of course the rankings can also be seen and of course we'll see later whether perhaps before the end of the season there will be another tight competition between Arteta and Pep Guardiola
One of the reasons why Arteta is in better shape than Pep and can manage his team better is because he is not going through a difficult time in his life like Pep is going through, where a divorce is taking away half of the things he has achieved throughout his life, and this in itself does affect the situation of any person, apart from the poor play of the players, because like any human being, emotions do affect their work, it is difficult, I think what is happening is a consequence of what Pep has not yet been able to overcome.
Man City can send a message to the rest of Europe when they face Real Madrid

But they have a chance to find the positives from the encounter, even if boss Pep Guardiola knows it will be a tough task.
“It looks like a derby already, four years in a row facing Madrid,” said Guardiola. “Madrid or Bayern, both were really tough, hopefully we can arrive in the first leg here and the next one in Madrid as best as possible.”

He knows how to do his job and i think he will get Man City back on track. I dont think that divorce is making a problem on his managing the team. I think its just time that they change the players and just implement the new players and new gamestyle
