Pep needs a miracle

It is not a big challenge, it is more of a miracle than anything else. The most difficult thing for Guardiola is the 2019/20 Premier League. Liverpool, unbeaten and with only one draw after 16 games, have already got themselves a massive advantage.

In fact, historically, they've already won. No club has managed to close such a gap so far in the Premier League. An overwhelming difference that, considering the level shown by the Redss, it is unusual to think that they could be infront by so much.

"If we are honest, City's title aspirations have ended", former City footballer Michael Brown said, in his chat with 'BBC'. Nobody is betting on this City for this course in the league competition.

The team have not got off to as good a start as other seasons. Guardiola has had the worst start as a coach after 16 games and, with 32 points out of a possible 48, sees his chances of fighting for the trophy disappear.

For many City fans, the club should consider placing the Champions League as a priority for this season. A competition in which the club already suffered a painful elimination last year against Tottenham. Pep, before a really difficult challenge, practically impossible.
