"Questions are going to be asked by Man City. He's obviously got a lot of credit in the bank at City with everything he's achieved there. At the moment the view is that he's pretty much untouchable, but with the money they've spent on this massive squad overhaul, he does need to get results. The expectation there is that they win the league every year, last year they came nowhere close."
"Man City have lost a lot of senior players in the transfer window, and they don't have that stable foundation of players that they've always had. Kyle Walker, Ederson, Manuel Akanji, Kevin de Bruyne, Ilkay Gundogan, Jack Grealish these are all players who have played big roles for City and have now been sold, and that can have a real impact on the team going forward."
Manchester City suffered a very disappointing prior season and begins 2025-26 with a strong desire to compete on all fronts. The campaign opened poorly with one win and two defeats from three Premier League matches, increasing scrutiny on Pep Guardiola. Club expectations remain to win the league annually, and substantial summer spending raises performance demands. Significant departures of senior players have removed a stable foundation and may affect cohesion and results. Despite Guardiola's past achievements and accumulated goodwill, another trophyless season could lead to questions about his future and possible managerial change.
