Now it is not possible to say what will happen or not. Because we can never tell the present by looking at the previous matches. Yes, Manchester City played very well in the previous season. But this season we cannot see any performance of Manchester City. Because they have played 2 matches, one win and one loss. If they have this situation, then they will never be able to win this season. If we look at the latest performance of Manchester City, it is clear that their position is not very good. They have to work very hard because they have to find out where they are going wrong and fix it.
Play very well in the previous season?
Did you miss that Manchester City had big crisis last season and they struggled till the end for getting a position in top four of Premier League?
They won many titles in Premier League during the last decade but it is previous seasons, not the last one when they had a crisis. Their performances in early matches of this season did not show that they have been fully resolved their problems and this means another crisis can appear anytime in this season for Manchester City.
