The city is falling apart and all the attention is focused on someone they also focused on when things were going well: Pep Guardiola. The Santpedor coach has four defeats for the first time in his career after losing to Brighton.
A series of circumstances that occurred due to lack of personnel and injuries, some of which are fundamental, like Rodri’s. Without the Ballon d’Or, the team failed, as happened last season.
In a campaign that lasts almost a year, injuries are inevitable. However, to make an argument for City’s current crisis, we will have to go back to the summer window, in which inaction in the transfer department already suggested what is happening now.
City only added Savinho, who arrived from Girona, and, at the last minute, Gundogan. Despite a very good end to last year’s growth, there was no movement in the market. Guardiola felt strong enough to spend another season with his team of recent years.
But football doesn’t stop. With Julian Alvarez gone to Atlético, with De Bruyne a year older, with Rodri without rest and on the verge of injury, which finally happened, with signings like Kovacic and With Nunez underperforming, Foden weaker than ever and Haaland the only attacking threat… defeat was common.
That’s how it was. In fact, Pep had to turn to the likes of Simpson-Pusey, a young centre-back who has very good manners but is paying the price for his inexperience.Pep’s message in this mega-crisis is clear: “I like a challenge, it’s a challenge.” In any case, messages that put him at the forefront of a sports project, when in fact his contract ends in June. This gives reason to hope for continuity in office. The city is in your hands. A city with serious problems.
