Yeah, I've always known Pep Guardiola to be a top notch manager, and his ability to adapt to situations and also fix unexpected problems makes him stand out, and I have reasons to share in your thoughts on this, because the recent performance of City against Wolverhampton Wanderers really proves the fact that they're really back on track, but let's watch and see how their subsequent games would look like as they take on other formidable opponents, then we'll know for sure how prepared they are this season.
Manchester City's issues last season stemmed from the fact that their midfield build-up play was not in sync with their attacking line, resulting in persistent problems that could not be resolved. This made Haaland, as the striker, struggle due to the ball supply not meeting expectations, which in turn disrupted his performance.
This season, Manchester City has improved upon that, and Tijani is clearly an excellent signing. In this match alone, he managed to score a goal, which gives us some confidence that Manchester City will perform better this season compared to last season.
Additionally, I appreciate seeing Pep deploy Doku in a comfortable position, as his speed and capabilities are undeniable. Gonzalez's role as a box-to-box midfielder in both ball circulation and defense during today's match is also worthy of praise, as he was solid in initiating attacks and defending.
