After three rounds City has 3 points, and Liverpool already has 9 points, such a big difference after only three rounds already says that it will be very difficult for City to compete with Liverpool this season. And these are not just two unsuccessful matches at the very beginning of the season, this shows that City have problems in the team that have not gone away and they are not able to win as easily as it was several seasons ago. Guardiola is trying to understand what the reason is, and the team is at the stage of changes in the composition, in this case it is difficult to think about trophies.
After this season Guardiola should just leave coaching Manchester City, his work there is done for me, he gave them the best in the long run just that the end of his career in the club doesn't speak good, i doubt if he would want to continue the job here next season. Guardiola ending in a bad term isn't what we thought about, Liverpool are on the fast run, Man City is less likely to win the Premier League nor Champions League, these are trophies that are worth the end part of his career in Man City.
