Manchester City are enduring their worst run of form under Pep Guardiola, failing to secure a win in their last seven games across all competitions. The team has conceded 19 goals during this streak, sparking frustration among fans and fierce taunts from rivals.
At Anfield, Liverpool fans chanted, “You’re getting sacked in the morning,” as City suffered yet another Premier League defeat. This marked their fourth consecutive league loss, a troubling statistic for the defending champions.
Guardiola, however, responded with a calm defiance. Holding up six fingers, he reminded the Anfield crowd of his six Premier League titles as City’s manager. Speaking after the game, Guardiola addressed the chants with a mix of humor and determination.
“I didn’t expect Anfield to say I will be sacked in the morning,” he said. “But it’s fine, it is what it is. When you win, you laugh.”
The suggestion of Guardiola facing the sack seems unlikely, given his unprecedented success with the club. However, the current slump has placed unusual pressure on the manager and his players.
Guardiola expressed confidence in turning the tide, saying, “From here, we will start building our confidence and winning games. I want the team back, I want my players back. We will make a reset from here. I can feel that.”
Despite the poor form, Guardiola’s track record at Manchester City ensures he remains one of the safest managers in football. His six Premier League titles and numerous domestic trophies are a testament to his managerial brilliance. For now, City fans will hope the reset Guardiola promises is just around the corner.
