Pep Guardiola Faces Career-Worst Slump as Manchester City Lose Derby

Manchester City suffers its eighth defeat in eleven matches, with Guardiola acknowledging his struggles to address the team's ongoing crisis.

Manchester City lost 2-1 to Manchester United in a dramatic derby, conceding two late goals after leading until the 88th minute.
This marks City's eighth loss in their last eleven matches across all competitions, a historic low under Guardiola's tenure.
Guardiola expressed self-criticism, stating, 'I am not good enough,' as he struggles to identify solutions to the team's poor form.
Key challenges include a demanding schedule, injuries, and defensive vulnerabilities, though Guardiola denies these are the sole reasons for the slump.
City now sits fifth in the Premier League, nine points behind leaders Liverpool, who also have a game in hand.
