Not all can maintain the stability of performance in every match, especially in a tight match schedule so I do not overreact to what happened to Liverpool last season and what must be realized is that in the knockout competition everything is possible to happen and also what must be remembered is that the competition in the Champion League is very fierce with quite high tension so that we often see surprises that occur in the Champion League competition, even that happens almost every season.
The fact that Liverpool went out at such an early stage may indicate that they became champions in the Premier League so easily because they did not feel the competition from City, and Arsenal, as always, could not maintain consistency throughout the season. It is easy to lead when no one is nipping at your heels, and I want to see what Liverpool can do in the new season, because I hope that Guardiola can lead City out of this long-term crisis and get them back on track.
Liverpool was simply unlucky in that penalty shootout. They played against arguably the strongest PSG side ever and fought really well, but luck was on PSG’s side. Next season, i expect much more from Liverpool because they’ve brought in some serious reinforcements. As for Guardiola, he’s definitely on the right track to pull City out of the crisis, like you said i think the management trusts him, and i believe he will be successful.
