Tuesday's Champions League loss to Sporting CP marked Manchester City's third consecutive loss, a state that the City boss is looking to change.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is determined to turn around the club's recent struggles, embracing the challenge of restoring the Cityzens' typically dominant form.
After a series of disappointing performances, Guardiola remains focused and motivated, assuring fans that he’s ready to fight and inspire his team through the rough patch.
The usually high-flying Cityzens have encountered an unexpected downturn, starting with last week's Carabao Cup exit, where they fell 2-1 to Tottenham Hotspur.
Spurs’ Timo Werner and Pape Matar Sarr put the London side ahead, with City’s Matheus Nunes pulling one back, but it wasn't enough to avoid elimination.
