City firing Pep Guardiola would undoubtedly be the beginning of their downfall. While the team has struggled this season with a series of disappointing performances, I believe the solution lies in strengthening the squad rather than changing the manager. To return to their best, City must bring in quality players who will be able to add both depth and skills to the team. A well structured transfer plan will be needed ensuring the right signings and that they don’t break the FFP regulations.
I totally agree with you. Letting go of Pep would be a huge mistake. He is the reason City has been so dominant, and even though this season has been rough, replacing him isn’t the solution. The squad needs reinforcements, not a new manager. A few key additions in weak areas could help City bounce back without disrupting the stability that Guardiola brings.
In as much as Pep Guardiola have done his best for this team, if he can’t continue at the pace he has taken this team so far to, he may likely be replaced by another manager. It is too soon now to make conclusions on that, because the season is not yet over and we may see him perform wonders and finish in a good position that he’ll be considered for more season with the club. His current form with the team was not what anyone saw coming because even at the start of the season, they were amongst the major contender of the league title, both the premier league and the champions league. Now that they’ve been eliminated from the champions league, we may see a different Manchester City as their focus will only be on the premier league and they would try at least to finish in a good position since the odds to finish first is no more on their side again.
