Yea, City defense is weak and they need to strengthen it, if they want to improve their performance to the best. The players are old and getting weak which is affecting their performance. It's very disheartening that City is be 20 points away from the top of the table. I hope that City will be able to finish on top four this season in order for them to qualify for UCL next season.
Manchester city defense has been so weak which is part of what has been affecting them. If you look at their match against Liverpool yesterday, Liverpool didn’t play anything special also, they just took advantage of the chances which they had, and since Manchester City performance was weak, they were able to utilize those chances. Manchester City tried to break Liverpool defense, but it was so difficult for them, Doku tried breaking Liverpool defense, but it was just so difficult, all his attempts were just unsuccessful. All what pep is fighting for is just to end the season in top 4, he knows there is no trophy for him this season.
