let's see what happens later but the Man city match against West Ham that has happened which was won by Man city shows that Man city has made progress in terms of its performance and of course Pep Guardiola is a professional coach so he will definitely prepare everything so that Man city can rise.
now let's see what happens later and indeed Man city should be able to achieve a good ranking so that they can get tickets to UCL again but considering the current competition there are many good and surprising clubs then it definitely takes extra work to be able to get tickets to UCL.
I believe Manchester City after many chaos in this season, will eventually complete this season in top four. They won't be able to win Premier League title in this season but top four is very possible for them. Because other clubs are not consistent and experienced enough to perform better than Manchester City, and take over one position in top four, and my assumption is Arsenal and Chelsea will be in top four too.
Sometimes one win can revive the fighting spirit of players who have experienced a decline in self-confidence. And I hope that happens at Man City for the rest of this season. because I think the competition this season has become a little strange when we see Man City slumping quite badly. And actually the previous week Man City managed to beat Leicester and since then I think the confidence of the Man City players has improved again. So it is not surprising that in the match against West Ham we can see Man City winning the match with a big score, namely 4-1.
Manchester City have a very bad season and worse than what they imagined when it started, but they won't have free fall like out of top four in this season. A position in top four, a ticket to UCL won't be a success for them, but it will help their club finance for a next season, and a foundation for their rebuild and development of their squad in the summer transfer and next seasons. They will finally finish this humble task in Premier League.
