Guardiola Declares 'Reset' as Manchester City Faces Worst Run Under His Leadership

The reigning Premier League champions are winless in seven matches and sit 11 points behind Liverpool, raising questions about their season and Guardiola's plans.

• Pep Guardiola described Manchester City's current situation as a 'reset' after a 2-0 loss to Liverpool extended their winless streak to seven matches, the worst of his managerial career.
• Manchester City is grappling with injuries and fatigue, particularly in midfield, with key players like Rodri and Mateo Kovacic unavailable and Kevin De Bruyne still recovering from a groin injury.
• Guardiola hinted at potential January transfer window signings to address squad issues but also suggested tactical adjustments, including a possible central role for Jack Grealish and a return to form for other players.
• The team's poor form has led to speculation about Guardiola's future, though he remains optimistic about rebuilding confidence and stability starting with Wednesday's match against Nottingham Forest.
• City's title defense appears increasingly unlikely, with the team trailing Liverpool by 11 points and facing challenges to secure a top-four finish, according to analysts like Jamie Carragher.
