I believe there is going to be a great change in the club next season, the new players are really trying to prove there worth and I believe the club will fare more better next season. It is beyond the bounds of possibilities for Manchester city to finish first position this season because the difference in point between Manchester city and Liverpool that is topping the premier league is really much. However there focus now should be on how to be among the top four, since the chances of them topping the league this season is out for them, and also there next focus should be on how to win the FA Cup and use that to consolidate there losses this season and prepare fully for next season.
If Manchester City is still in the FA cup then they should focus there and try very hard to maintain there top 4 spot in the English premier league because for them finishing second in the league is still impossible more or less winning the English premier league this season, they should prepare their self very well next season I believe injuries really spoiled Manchester City game this season after doing well in the begining of the season Manchester City started losing game back to back any team were winning them .
Manchester City has been dominating the English league in the past season so if they are not doing well is because they have been doing before I believe this season is a different season for the citizens.
The FA Cup and a Champions League ticket are Manchester City current priorities. I believe Pep Guardiola will be able to secure these remaining opportunities, despite the ups and downs in their performance throughout the season.
Everything seems out of wrong when a team experiences a performance decline. Manchester City faces more issues than just player injuries. Ilkay Gundogan, Kevin De Bruyne, and Kyle Walker, who previously played key roles in the Manchester City squad, are no longer at their peak. Age has diminished their quality, which has then impacted the team overall performance. Pep Guardiola was late in realizing this, in other words, the manager was late in preparing the squad transition.
Omar Marmoush, Nico Gonzalez, and Abdukodir Khusanov will be important parts of Manchester City journey next season. Pep Guardiola may overhaul his squad depth again next summer.
