Current situation is not ideal to talk about future of Pepe Guardiola at the Manchester City because as things are going we can expect them to break record of Premier League with their fourth win into this season but still future of coach is not updated because we all know he is having not talk about his contract and future with he is focusing on games.
Is there anyone really fit for the job? To replace Pep? I think not. I can’t think of anyone and as such, having to entertain the idea that he could be replaced or doesn’t have a future in the team feels like a mirage.
Manchester City might be facing a little difficulty in winning games at the moment but, it’s what a lot of teams have had to handle and came out of it eventually. So will Pep and his boys, all they need is a little more time to have that team all together as it once was. The team is in so much disarray right now but, once they get that rhythm back, your sure they would be terrifying as they’ve always been.

And I think you got the best answer because Pep Guardiola has got no better replacement for him in the Manchester City club, I wonder why the team will want to take the risk of losing Pep when they know that he can easily fix the situation in the team if given a little more time with his boys, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea has had their own issues but they allowed their managers to stay thinking that they can handle the problems but City just lost 4 matches in a roll and the fans are already wanting him to be sacked that's too wrong if you ask me.
What makes you guys assume that Pep Gardiola can't be well replaced provided he has to leave Manchester City at the end of this season? Pep isn't a superhuman manager and there has been better managers in the EPL before him and that's why I think he can always be replaced by another better manager who will still have Manchester City on a good pedestal in the EPL. Before Jorgen Klopp had to leave Liverpool we all thought he wouldn't get a better replacement like him who will continue to hold and maintain a good form with the Reds but today Arne Slot has been doing a great job with the club both in all competitions since his arrival. So for anyone to think that Pep Gardiola is irreplaceable at City it is very delusional.

On the other hand, I don't see him getting sacked by the club owners just because he has lost four games in a row this season because right now I understand the club owners are even keen to having him extend his contract after this season, although it is believed that Pep is eyeing the manager's slot of the South America's national team Brasil alongside with Ancelotti in the race for the position. But for now really don't know pep Gardiola"s decision about his future with City so we have to wait until his contract completely expires.

Pep Guardiola have been a great manager because he transformed Manchester City from grass to grace. He has proven himself to be the best coach who have coached in three different league and he has done a very good job in does places. I think they are in talks regarding his contract extension and I pretty sure it will work out but not as long as the previous contract, I even see something like months not years. Ronaldo Nazario the Brazilian legend is also planning to take him as a head coach in the national team after he have succeed in becoming the head of his country football federation. This is also a great opportunity for him to rest after working the all day for many years.
Pep Guardiola may wants to stay at Manchester city for some more time like a season or 2, but I think the interest from Brasil may disrupt this plan. Pep has proven his worth already in the La liga, Bundesliga and Premier league, moving to Brasil will be a much different challenge and if he can bring the Brazilian's team back to winning ways of trophy, notably, the world cup, then he will set himself more as the very best. Pep may the seriously move to Brasil since, they have enough quality squad he can work with to produce much better result for the team.

One theory about Manchester City and Pep Guardiola is maybe he will leave Manchester City because he wants to have people remember him for his good performance and that's why he prefers to leave the team when they have a bad performance this way he will say in memory a legend and the other theory is he likes to stay in Manchester City because he enjoys it and that's why prefers to hire some other players get the team improved and then he will prove himself. I think the second theory is true and Manchester City will even try to give Guardiola some more time even if he gets bad results.

I don't think Pep Guardiola will leave just because he has four defeats with his work. Every team can be defeated, there is no team that cannot be defeated. Manchester City can be defeated too. The important thing is to trust Guardiola a lot considering his past successes. Even if they don't become champions this year, Guardiola himself knows best where to intervene for next year. That's why I think he shouldn't leave the team. If he leaves the team, Manchester City will be the loser. I don't see a better manager in the world right now.

I don't think Manchester City's rivals are waiting for Pep to leave (some are but not all) so they could take that opportunity to be at the top as always, no. Pep Guardiola's presence is what's making the EPL and winning the title more challenging and if as a coach you feel you're good enough then win the title when the best is around not wait for the best to be eliminated from the equation before calling yourself a good competitor. If he should quit his position as the City boss I would like to see him coach a national team let's see if he can keep up with the pressure of coaching a national team.

Yeah right, the dominance of Manchester City will definitely end up just waiting for time and we know that no team can maintain glory for decades, now we can see how Manchester City has a gap and also competitors can catch up 2 draws 2 defeats are proof that they have a problem. I have estimated that Manchester City will go through the golden era and the other team will replace them, Chelsea and Arsenal might be the next best team for the next 2-3 seasons.

Manchester City's dominance is not that good at the moment, it is true that no team can maintain their glory for decades. The current situation of Manchester City in which they may have a lot of competition this season proves that they have a gap. Looking at the current position of Manchester City, we can say that they must have problems or they will have to go through a golden era. Yes, Chelsea and Arsenal may be the best teams for the next seasons, but currently Liverpool are more likely to be selected as the best team of the season.

If we just draw on the statistics, it is pretty simple: last season Chelsea had 15 points and +5 goals after 11 games and now they have 19 points and +8 after 11 games. Now what made a big difference last season is something else because the first five clubs after 11 games had 27/26/24/24/22 points and this season the first five have 28/23/19/19/19.

You can tell from those numbers that the top teams, which were expected to take the lead in the early season, performed much better collectively than they do this season except for Liverpool. Tottenham was at 26 points last season after 11 games! Now they have got 16 points. That's massive.
There is no doubt about what you say, it is simply the truth, what happens is that the PL has a very high level and that is what we must see, personally I am anxious because I can say that things for some teams like Aston Villa, Tottenham including Chelsea are teams that can probably make the difference, in this case it can be seen that this league continues to maintain the leadership , what you say about Tottenham is good, I think that any team like these and now the MU are Ascending and are Giving a lot to talk about and if it is about talking and improving I think that now the MU is a clear example.

The rumour is Manchester City and Guardiola is under negotiation to talking about new contract and it says Guardiola is willing to extended his contract for at least 1 year but before he sign new contract Guardiola want Manchester City provides a guarantee that they will give their priority to hold Haaland and Rodri besides these players in January later Guardiola want to bought the players he wants such as Martin Zubimendi and Jamal Musiala and i think for Zubimendi it is very possible to gets because lately at the interview Zubimendi has been said that he was to thinking to leave Sociedad if there is good offer come to him but for Jamal Musiala i think this is hard because i am sure Bayern Munich will attempts to hold this player
As Manchester City have been underperforming this season due to a lack of quality midfielders, a quality midfielder will be a key part of Manchester City's plans for the time being. But I have also seen many discussions that many are claiming that Pep Guardiola can leave Manchester City and take charge of another team in the next season. 

Pep Guardiola is one of the best managers so if he were to leave Manchester City and go to another club I would say that would be a negative for Manchester City. But if Pep Guardiola plans more seasons with this team instead of leaving Manchester City, then I would say that next season he will change every part of the team and bring good quality players to Manchester City.

You never know whether it is Pep Guardiola or anybody else, this is serious and I appreciate how serious you have been, thank you!

Jürgen Klopp has been the toughest contender to Pep Guardiola. Infact, there was when I really felt for Klopp and that was when he ended the season with 97 points and yet didn't win the league. He must have just been imagining where he is now that Pep lost 4 consecutive matches. He never had such an opportunity.
It is true that no team remains the best for everyone, but we should not expect the downfall of Manchester city now, unless another club will capital on their present weakness and pump money into their own club. It is money that makes club big and nothing more.

I think the best thing the management needs to do right now is to reduce the pressure of the shoulders of Pep Guardiola and let him do his board work, it is not later for him to bounce back and win the English Premier League title which has become their bath right.

I see Pep as the kind of manager that loves the pressure. If you look at his history at Man City, he always becomes better when things get very tough. We've seen his team struggle for the first half of the season then go ahead to win 17 straight games in the next year. this current form is not new. In the last 2 seasons, Arsenal topped the table till Man City took over a few games to the end of the season.
The same thing has happened when Liverpool were leading, so the same thing can happen this season.
The good news is his injured players are coming back and if they stay fit, Pep has a very big chance of winning the league. I wonder why people still write him off.
Every manager, especially in the Premier League, must be able to get used to working under pressure, Pep Guardiola is one of the best managers in this regard. Although in the last few seasons Manchester City appeared unstable at the start of the campaign, in the end Pep Guardiola was able to lead his team to the top of the standings and successfully defend the trophy. Arsenal failed to survive when the pressure became heavier, for various reasons, Arsenal often lost points in the decisive weeks before the end of the season.

It is possible that Liverpool could also repeat their mistakes like last season, thus giving Manchester City the opportunity to take over the top of the standings in the end. Pep Guardiola is clearly very respected in the Premier League and even in the scope of European football, only a few managers are able to present trophies in every season in a row.

I think the second theory is true and Manchester City will even try to give Guardiola some more time even if he gets bad results.
In all of his doings that ha made him really wanted to leave city, none of these has been his takes, rather it's been feeling like he has served long enough and can leave if he wants to as it's due, he's been with them for a very long time and has gotten a very good track record to uphold even after he's left, about the second theory, not only does he enjoys staying in Manchester City but he's got a passion for what he does and he's been able to build a team at Manchester City that's getting him that results and that's why he requested leaving with certain player at some point if he's eventually going to leave.

I don't think any manager likes to be under pressure, they all want to be on top. but only a few managers are able to handle the pressure and get back on top, and Pep is one of them.

And soon Man City will face Tottenham, in the midst of the storm of injuries that occurred, of course this will be a tough match for Man City. But as you said, it's quite fortunate because in the match on November 24th, two main defenders can return to play, namely Ruben Dias and J Stones, and one midfielder, J Grealish. because at least with the return of these 3 players, this can strengthen Man City's defense which in the last few matches was so fragile and so did Man City's midfield which had a little problem in providing the flow of the ball to the attack line.

I am not undermining the brilliance and success of Pep Guardiola because what he has achieved in club football is what so many managers would dream to have done but the mention of pressure I don’t think Pep has ever been under the pressure to manage a team, he has just been obsessed with winning and nothing more, most of the clubs he managed he was definitely able to put together many good players due to his own experience and also the backing from the club which is finance.

Throughout Pep Guardiola time at Manchester city he has been having more than two great players in each position for the club and when other teams were battling Injury crisis he was bossing the league with his large squad depth, what many saw then was that the other clubs weren’t tactical good as Pep but right now he is in the same mix with injury crisis and having lost four games already in row I will say I am most anticipating how Pep will pull through from this although the arrival of some injured players are going to be a boost for him.

Pep's probably staying in Manchester City until 2027. He's not only getting one year contract extension, but there is also an option to add another year. He's probably getting two year extension from Manchester City.


No matter how long the contract is, I believe this man is tired of winning, he has everything a coach would want. Breaking records and setting a new one has been his thing and in the EPL he changed the way every manager thinks, take a look at how every club wants to play like City, all thanks to Pep Guardiola. If Pep Guardiola leaves the EPL I don't think the Citizens will ever be the same or even be that competitive and to top it all some of the players might even leave the team, like it will be very hard to be up to that standard Pep Guardiola have set before leaving the club, that's for any manager that's taking over.
Speculation about Pep Guardiola future has now ended as expected by Manchester City fans, and other good news that Rodri will soon be rejoining the team.
The contract extension will certainly have an impact on improving the team performance, and will clearly make the competition for trophies even more competitive. Manchester City competitors certainly hope that Pep Guardiola will soon leave the Etihad, so that their steps to win trophies will be easier. At club level, Pep Guardiola has won almost all trophies during his managerial career, perhaps one day we will all see him become the manager of the National Team, that is a new challenge for him. It is not easy to find a suitable replacement, throughout its history, the Pep Guardiola era was Manchester City best period.

I don't think Manchester City's rivals are waiting for Pep to leave (some are but not all) so they could take that opportunity to be at the top as always, no. Pep Guardiola's presence is what's making the EPL and winning the title more challenging and if as a coach you feel you're good enough then win the title when the best is around not wait for the best to be eliminated from the equation before calling yourself a good competitor. If he should quit his position as the City boss I would like to see him coach a national team let's see if he can keep up with the pressure of coaching a national team.

I don't see a lot of news about the development of the 115 indictment issue about Man City. But today this news came out by accident, I read Nick de Marco KC sports lawyer. He argued that when one of those cases is proven true, Man City should not be relegated. The best thing is the point deduction like the one obtained by Everton. Remember this case began in 2023 with a closed trial. Until now there is no clear news. It is estimated that this problem will be resolved early this December.

Is he retarded? Everton were docked 8 points for one violation. If I'm not mistaken, City are now accused of not 115 but 130 violations. Let's say they are found guilty of a third of these violations - let's take the round number 40. 40*8= 320. This point deduction is enough to get them relegated first from the Premier League, then from the Championship, and then even lower. And that would be completely fair and logical.

I think he should get more because there are no better teams that he can coach and they'll be willing to spend like the way Manchester city are allowing him to spend. He's also in the premier league and this is the best league in the world. If he goes elsewhere, he won't be getting attention as he's receiving as it's due to he's coaching in the premier league and dominating so many individuals consider him one of the best managers for not only coach in the premier league but worldwide. Pep Guardiola still has alot of unfinished business at Manchester city too as he's yet to win them as much trophies as he could with the squad and financial support that he has.
Like you said the Premier league is the best league in the world and it more competitive, there is a very high media attention and alot more, so probably there is the reason pep is still with Manchester city but for you to say he has an unfinished business I don't think I agree with you on that, he has practically won everything there is to be won at Manchester city. He currently sit second in the league and it very early to rule him out that he can't win the league. If he should win it it will be the 5th in a row, that definitely going to be mind blowing. Whatever decision he decide to take weather to leave city or stay I don't think he still have anything to prove in the Premier league again.

I think Pep Guardiola has done enough for Manchester City, you think it is easy to win 4 EPL title in a row, he has done a lot for the team making among the most fearsome team in the world. Though I think Brasil may be able to sway him to move to the National team, if he is really in need of a new challenge since he has won everything with the City team.
I wonder what is his drive is to remain with City even after all these accomplishments, though now they are having more law cases but I hope he is still the manager when all this is over and help to strengthen the club after everything has been rectified before leaving.

I truly stand by you, pep guardiola have archived everything to be achieved in the Premier league, and winning the premier league four times in a row is something no manager have done yet in the history of premier league and I think it Going to be a record that will never be broken or even take decades to be broken. So maybe if he consider taking a national team job it will be more adventurous for him only that it will find it a bit difficult because you can't make transfers in the national team so he might face challenges.

Guardiola will want to try everything possible to get back his players, although it won’t be easy because they are currently in bad form, but we can’t predict what will happen. Liverpool are in good form, and they are after the title this season, so they won’t want to lose against Manchester City that are not in good form this time around. Tottenham are not in good form right now, the same as Manchester City, so these two teams are both almost doing the same thing; we can’t predict them.
Honestly Liverpool will make everything possible to perform very well against Manchester City, so that they can able to win them easily without so much challenges, since although Manchester city are not in the form this days I think that’s the opportunity that Liverpool are going to use to take the lead them.

But let wait and see what can happen after they back from the break, because in football everything is possible we never the kind outcome that Manchester City will come with, they might have improved much of their performance before resume to from the mid break.

But there is a big possibility that a surprise could occur in this match where if Tottenham is able to improve their performance better, of course this match will be quite tough. Well, for Manchester City, they will not be strengthened by a number of their main players because I count that there are 12 players who are injured so they have to be absent from this match such as Foden, Ake and several others. For Pep Guardiola, this match will be a big challenge to bring Manchester City back to 3 points because they need to maintain the points difference so as not to lag further behind Liverpool who are leading the standings.
This possibility is still there but after this international break somehow I feel pretty sure that there will be some very big changes happening for Manchester City.

It is undeniable that the losing streak has made them lose a little momentum and their mentality is clearly a little disturbed especially for the midfield but now there is KDB who can be played at any time and I think this will be a difference later for Manchester City in this match.

Manchester City play at the Etihad even though their fans' enthusiasm is not as militant as some other big clubs but it cannot be denied that the Etihad is sometimes haunted and now Pep's problems in midfield can be solved by KDB who is ready to play so I am pretty sure that Manchester City can get 3 points back after several weeks they have to keep losing their points.

Tottenham Hotspur performance has not been that great this season but as for Manchester City, they may see it as an opportunity for them to win them and get back to their winning ways after a poor start to the season for them. Manchester City are the better club and have got the better head to head winning streak than Tottenham Hotspur. This match is a very big one to be played after the international break and is not the one that we can easily predict because both teams looks evenly matched against each other with their current performance in the league. Tottenham should make the best out of this match because, they are on the better side after Manchester City have been performing poorly, they can try and get a three points in this match and in a worst case scenario a draw for them. They shouldn’t misuse this opportunity and make Manchester City come back to form from this game on them.
Yes, in terms of performance, Tottenham has indeed experienced a decline where they were only able to win 5 of the 11 matches they have played. Compared to last season, Tottenham is certainly very different from this season, they seem to have difficulty winning. This will allow Manchester City to take advantage of their opponent's instability by scoring early, especially since Manchester City is playing at home, of course this match is an important match for them to return to winning ways.

But there is a big possibility that a surprise could occur in this match where if Tottenham is able to improve their performance better, of course this match will be quite tough. Well, for Manchester City, they will not be strengthened by a number of their main players because I count that there are 12 players who are injured so they have to be absent from this match such as Foden, Ake and several others.
