Manchester City has not spent a large amount of money on player purchases this season. I thought that Manchester City management would try to find a worthy replacement for De Bruyne. But they did not do that. Manchester City cannot find a worthy replacement for De Bruyne. This is one of the reasons why City's overall performance has been erratic this season.
Guardiola's match strategy cannot be considered too high now. Because the opposing coaches understand Guardiola's match strategy quite well. Moreover, we can see the decline in Manchester City's attacking performance. The team is now in a very shaky state. The possibility that City will compete for the title this season is very low.
After looking at the whole thing for Manchester City, currently the chance to become champions is probably only a quarter of a percent and that is indeed inseparable from Guardiola and his own players, especially the core players whose performance has declined or moved and that is a challenge that must be fixed, in achieving what Manchester City hopes for and that is one of them ind changing the existing order.
