What we all know from following City in recent years is that we go through patches like this at times. Happened with Mancini, Pellers, and now Pep.
It’s like a familiar sort of “identity crisis” that lurks in the background. What’s harder to accept this time though, is that the club (and indeed many of us fans) thought we’d finally found our long term identity with this possession-based, attacking football that Pep’s known for. But there again, the same identity problem crops up.
I take some comfort from the fact that, whatever happens, these periods have always been followed by some kind of exciting “shake up”. It could be a new manager, new tactics, new players. I think it’ll be a tough few months, and possibly a tough season, but on the other side of this we’ll hopefully be back in the stadium and watching something refreshing and new
