The main problem of this Manchester City is because they are lacking the world class player that actually made a whole of things easier for them because now it seems as if they are currently stucked on creativity because this squad used to be a whole lot different with the likes of Kevin de bruyne, benardo silva, David silva and so many midfielders who can score goals and at the same time create marvelous chances that can make things happen when they are in a tight situation.
Yes this team is actually suffering from leaders like Kelvin De Bruyne, Gundogan too but David Silva has left long time ago and then Bernardo Silva is still in the team, I still think compare to other teams they still have whole lots of players who can stand up but yet again Pep Guardiola isn’t done yet with his experiment. Against Real Madrid he decided to go all out and leave only Rodri as the holding midfielder knowing fully well that Real Madrid more ball winners in the midfield than anywhere else. This is similar to what he did against Chelsea in the champions league final then when he played without any holding midfielder.
For the argument that top players from Manchester City are missing we can also say the Real Madrid team wasn’t what we used to see because their highest goal scorer isn’t there with few other key players that I bet will be starting if available. So there is no excuse actually
