“HE Needs to leave my Club this moment with immediate effect I don’t want to see him anylonger – Pep Guardiola has instructed Manchester City FLOP to leave the Club after having less touches than the Goalkeeper and also giving away the ball to opponents
Manchester City’s struggles continued on Saturday as they squandered a lead twice, ultimately settling for a draw at the Etihad Stadium. The stalemate was compounded by Abdukodir Khusanov’s own goal, which marked the 40th time City has conceded in the league this season. This dubious milestone is a first for manager Pep Guardiola, who has never seen his team concede so many goals in a single season.
The draw has significant implications for City’s season, as it ensures that Guardiola will finish with his lowest points total in his nine seasons in England, as well as in his entire managerial career. Even if City wins all of its remaining nine matches, Guardiola will still fall short of his usual high standards. This season will also mark the first time in his coaching career that he fails to average at least two points per game, a testament to the team’s inconsistent form.
The result has also dealt a blow to City’s hopes of qualifying for the Champions League, as Newcastle United can leapfrog them into the top five if they win their game in hand. Despite this setback, Guardiola remains optimistic about his team’s chances of securing a spot in Europe’s elite competition.
“I am always confident,” Guardiola said in a post-match interview. “I have moments where I can have doubt, but I find a way. We have nine games left in the league, and nine finals.” Guardiola’s words reflect his determination to rally his team and secure a strong finish to the season, despite the challenges they have faced so far.
