Losing six points in two consecutive matches is a big loss for Manchester City, the defeat against Arsenal may be acceptable because Arsenal is one of the teams capable of providing competition for Manchester City this season. The absence of key players could have an impact on Manchester City performance, Pep Guardiola must devise a strategy to cover his team's weaknesses in the last two matches. Returning to winning ways is the only way Manchester City can maintain competition with Arsenal. The domestic league journey has not yet reached the middle of the season, there are still many matches to be played and anything can still happen during that duration.

No matter how strong Manchester City is, it certainly has its weaknesses, and if these weaknesses are left open, Arsenal certainly won't want to waste this opportunity. Pep Guardiola may have been careless in thinking they could beat Arsenal like last season. Meanwhile, the fact is that Arteta has an ambitious soul who doesn't want past mistakes to repeat themselves. Try your best to improve the team and learn Manchester City's weaknesses.

6 points have passed and will be an important note while Kevin De Bruyne is still recovering from injury. The Premier League is very tight so you feel safe just because you are the defending champion doesn't mean it will continue. Other clubs are also developing quite rapidly, especially Arsenal, which incidentally has talented players who will make it easier for Arteta to design strategies.

[....]Coach Erik Ten Hag still believes that Onana will improve performance quickly.
I mean does he really have a choice at this point? They already invested heavily in the guy so the manager has to keep trusting him. I think he already played enough games to adjust and settle to the Premier League but it hasn't worked out well unfortunately. They probably regret not keeping De Gea for at least a year hehe.
I am one of the people who still believes in Onana even though many of them are skeptical of Onana but I will not doubt it in the middle of the season until end of this season and on the one hand we will see all the improvements after the transfer window reopens and I am quite sure Ten Hag will improve the defensive line players and look for the right players to improve Man United performance.
I not blame anyone but the defense line a little bad so Onanan does not get strong support from the defense line and I say that according to my own observations and I have said this 3 times in this thread. lets just see what will happen but it is still very reassuring if Man United comes back strong soon.

Manchester United have only Onana and Altay as the goalkeepers they could make use of. They really don't have any chance other than trying both of them and giving more chances to the one who performs better. Therefore I hope to see Altay being given some chances as well. I mean Onana is still playing the same.

While he is performing poorly I don't think it is logical to be stubborn about continuing to use him in every game. Altay has been a promising goalkeeper so far as well. In this situation I believe he deserves a chance. Let's say he played worse than Onana can take the shirt back from him.

I also expect Manchester City to start a winning streak after the break. The loss to Arsenal was a significant loss for them, but it was a predictable one. After all, Manchester City only loses three or four games at most in a season and this was one of them. It's bad that they lost to their direct rivals, but they can make up for it by winning their other matches.
Many of us do not understand the disease that accompanies loses. If a team, let's say Team A has a match as Team B and Team C. But they have to play Team B before Team C.  If Team A is able to beat Team B with upto 3 goals, Team C is technically defeated.
Why you see clubs like Manchester city always win matches is because of the fear factor people have for them. That fear will make coaches introduce foreign formations to play against the inform team and they likely lose. Since Manchester city has started lossing, don't be surprised if the Citizens surprised you once more
Sometimes it's happen and sometimes it's not, yet this is football. As a club with treble winners and manchester city has also a strong mentality to comeback as soon as possible. The citizen will be surprised us once more caused by city can lose/win against brighton.
Just because it's losing against arsenal and that means if it will be continuously losing against the teams after the match against arsenal. There will be some matches to come against brighton, united and bourne.
Im still expecting manchester city can get all three points from all those three.
I think you have to rightly understand my analogy and how it works out. When this thing begins to play out, it doesn't consider whether you are a champion or not. It doesn't even consider the status of your squad and it doesn't also consider the quality of the team you are playing against. It just happens. Just the way we have winning streaks, we also have lossing streak and if you are a sincere follower of the England football, you will discover that Manchester city has entered the lossing streak.
First they lost in the ELF cup against NEWCASTLE;
Their next England match was the EPL against WOLVES which they also lost;
Their next consecutive lost in the EPL was against ARSENAL;
and yet you don't understand that something is actually wrong with Manchester city.

Next week Liverpool will host Everton at Anfield stadium. I am completely sure that Liverpool will win this match because so far Liverpool have performed quite well in every match and have only lost 1x out of 8 matches against Tottenham. I am sure Liverpool will not waste their time getting full points. in this match.
If you look at the Head to Head records Liverpool have a fairly high chance of winning (71%) so I'm pretty sure that Liverpool will win in this match, Everton are not in good shape this season and only got 7 points and are ranked 16th so it's very likely Everton is not a tough enough opponent for Liverpool.
Since last season, Everton seems to have not found a good improvement in their club's performance. Last season, Lampard also had difficulty building the Everton squad to its best performance. And Everton's poor performance has even occurred since they were coached by Rafael Benitez. And Everton's current coach, Sean Dyche, seems to be experiencing the same difficulties as Lampard and Rafael Benitez. So even this season we can't expect much from Everton. So in the match against Liverpool, I am quite sure that Liverpool will get a big win in that match.

Everton are a strong team but not this season. They performed very badly with only 2 wins. Although for me the big team with the worst performance this season is Chelsea. I'm sure Liverpool will get an easy win this time. And betting on Liverpool is safer to secure your bet. It's a shame that I couldn't watch the Merseyside Derby which was quite as intense as several seasons ago.

City really needs someone like rodri or KDB. The club can't make a proper attack without having someone who is playing differently as a midfielder. KDB has always known when he must be assisting his team mate to scoring the goals.
KDB is now injury and manchester city doesn't have someone who can play as good as him. Missing rodri is now also one of a disaster for manchester city at this moment. It's caused by city has no equal replacement for de brune and rodri.
It will become pep's task to find someone who can play as good as them. The club needs to hope rodri will comeback from his suspension as soon as possible.

De Bruyne is a unique player, finding one like him will be a very difficult task. Guardiola fears that De Bruyne will not be able to return to the game until 2024, this is of course a big loss for City, but at the beginning of the season his absence was not as noticeable as it is now in recent games. Guardiola always comes up with something, but now the situation is really difficult, Gundogan could have backed up before, but now he is in Barcelona...

The mistake at MU has shifted from midfielder Harry Maguire to goalkeeper Andre Onana this season. Up to now, Onana has yet to show her abilities. Onana's first two matches in the Champions League for MU were indeed disasters. He made a mistake to help Bayern Munich win 4-3. In the most recent match against Galatasaray, Onana put the ball into the opponent's feet, causing Casemiro to receive a red card. Coach Erik Ten Hag still believes that Onana will improve performance quickly.

Manchester City are completely in for the EPL title race this season, these defeats are setbacks that would be comprehended in due time. Pep Guardiola is definitely thinking outside the box, and we should expects the very impossible tasks he would take next. Pep Guardiola is totally different from other EPL managers, more reason he's the best  because he's always one step ahead of all his opponents, triggering for the very best results. Pep will work on his squad  and ensured they will be able to adapt without these players become what City often do is replacing their key players with backup ones just to blend them in.
Two consecutive defeats, proving there is a problem in Pep's team. 2 This defeat was the first time since 2018. If this problem is not addressed immediately, Man City will find it even more difficult to achieve the championship target again. It seems that the great expectations of supporters and management make the team unable to meet expectations with the players they currently have. They look weakened, they've been knocked out of the Carabao Cup. It seems that Man City are starting to be in a state of crisis.

With statistics like that, his role has been almost irreplaceable since he was at Manchester City, but I don't think The Citizen will continue to depend on him forever because we know that KDB will also get older like other players. Pep Guardiola must really look for a replacement that is commensurate with KDB and they can start doing that in the transfer market next season. For this season, KDB can still contribute fully and it's just a matter of waiting for him to recover from his injury. More than that, I think Manchester City's future performance will still be questioned because they will not be strengthened by KDB until the middle of the season.
Pep Guardiola loves KDB and regarded as his favorite player, he grown to good form under the guidance of Pep Guardiola, and reached his peak, he never declined in his performance. Manchester City missed, leading to them having a poor results this season. There's absolutely no Manchester City player that would be able to filled in the shoes of Kelvin De Bruyne because he's an extraordinary player that knows the exact perfect time to make crucial passes and also incredible moments to apply a stunning shots towards his opponents on the pitch. It's quite unfortunate that he's ruled out for months, Pep Guardiola will face reality and scout his potential replacement in January.

KDB was always contributing a lot.



that's above was KDB's stat. I shall remind you that if KDB was always playing against arsenal last season when city was beating arsenal with huge scores two times. Missing him was giving a very big impact to the club. You can take a look at his stats.
KDB has been also contributing a lot of assists to the club last season combined with 7 goals. We can also assume that if 16 assists = 16 goals from manchester city. How many games can be won with these goals? That's a lot.
THat's why missing him was affecting the performance from manchester city as there's no guy who can creatively helping striker to build its momentum.

Manchester city are just lacking the present of de bruyne because he is an exceptional midfielder and he just makes the difference in the team and his presence makes the whole team a totally different team and Manchester city I think it's just suffering from the de bruyne effect. But the loss against arsenal is actually exceptional because this gunners team have really stepped up their game and if they can continue like this they would definitely make a difference in the title decided.
Kevin De Bruyne's absence was not the cause of Manchester City's defeat because a narrow defeat like that can be experienced by any team when the match is almost over and if you remember last season they also lost to Liverpool with the same score as when they lost to Arsenal, so in my opinion this is really wasn't because of Kevin De Bruyne's absence but they were a little careless and Arsenal took advantage of that.
This defeat looks painful because it happened to their strong competitor and is a consecutive defeat this season, but that does not mean they are out of the competition from the title race because anything is still possible in the next matches, and Arsenal should not be careless like what happened last season so they failed to win champion title.
Imo I don’t think Manchester city lost to Arsenal because of Kevin Debruyne absence. They’ve been since last season, he hasn’t been out injured and didn’t play up to 70% of their games but they have been winning without him. Rodri's suspension was a headache for Pep. Without Rodri, Manchester City struggled to transition from defence into attack smoothly. Instead, Pep prioritised keeping or protecting the ball as much as possible, rather than being purposeful with it.

Honestly I think going away to Arsenal at this early stage of the season, coupled with injuries, and suspension somehow influenced Pep's decision to be a little more cautious, even with the possibilities presented whenever Manchester City went wide in the game.
Their reserved approach revals how valuable Rodri is to this team than any other player and how much Guardiola respects Arsenal as an opponent.

It's bad that they lost to their direct rivals, but they can make up for it by winning their other matches.
Losing to Arsenal certainly felt more painful for Man City. Because after all, currently, Arsenal is his biggest and strongest enemy in the EPL. Every league definitely has matches with high levels of tension, and the EPL is no different. Man City and Arsenal are matches that are definitely very classy. So when you win this match, it will create a lot of prestige. Unfortunately at that time, Man City could not play optimally due to the absence of their two key players. And this may continue, so Pep still has to rack his brains so that they remain strong for the next matches.
Losing six points in two consecutive matches is a big loss for Manchester City, the defeat against Arsenal may be acceptable because Arsenal is one of the teams capable of providing competition for Manchester City this season.

I think one day we might see Arteta starting to manage Manchester City. The reason why I think like this is Arteta's being one of Guardiola's students.  Smiley  When the time is right Guardiola would decide to leave Manchester City. It would be early or not but he won't manage this team forever in the end.

At that time Manchester City will need to find a manager who can continue from where Guardiola left. They would make use of a manager who wouldn't need to make huge changes in the system as well. That man would definitely be Arteta in my opinion. After doing great things with Arsenal he can reach the top of his career with Manchester City in the future.
Speculation is uncertain, even though Arteta was Pep Guardiola's assistant, this does not mean that when he leaves Manchester City Arteta will be his replacement. Pep Guardiola once said that Arteta has the right instincts when the team is losing, so changing strategy and installing the right players can give good results. Like when he beat Manchester City by one goal in Arsenal's home match yesterday, Arteta's ability to see the weaknesses of his opponent and his team is also good because he does not allow opposing players to shoot from close range in the defensive area.

He tried to place the substitute players further forward than their usual position and as a result they succeeded in reducing Manchester City's attack. Haaland didn't get space to score goals and the midfield was also unable to play more creatively as usual, this strategy succeeded in making Arsenal win narrowly against Manchester City.
