Absolutely yes, this is the worst season for Manchester city for some years now and it has make them look like trash and it is really a shameful thing to Pep Guardiola because the change in performance for Manchester city is really crazy and up till now I don't know what the course is because I know almost the players are present now apart from Rodri who happens to be a great midfielder. is not longer about having more possessions I think Manchester city has lost the mentality and ability to score because there is no way Manchester city of last season will play you, no matter how solid your defense is that they will not penetrate and score but this season is different.
Isn't it a slight exaggeration to call a bad season a shameful thing when we are talking about Pep Guardiola, one of the best coaches of all times? Is a bad year in our life or a bad exam among many good exams a shameful thing?
What I agree with is that looking for the causes is much harder than one would think because everyone tries to come up with an explanation and even Pep Guardiola can't come up with one. It sometimes seems as if the other teams cracked the Manchester City code this season. It sounds weird, but that's what I think. They let Manchester City play whatever they want on the first two thirds of the pitch and then the teams understand very well how to defend against these sophisticated quick passing attacks. It doesn't work anymore for some unknown reason and now Manchester City has problems finding other ways despite having a striker like Haaland.
