Manchester City's new defeat at Liverpool unfortunately allowed the Citizens to make history. Never has a reigning champion been in such bad shape.
This is a record that Pep Guardiola would have done without. After Manchester City's new defeat against Liverpool (2-0), a statistic fell… Never before has a reigning English champion lost four games in a row in the Premier League. The 2024-2025 Citizens become the unfortunate first holders of this sad statistic.
Before losing to the Reds, Man City had already been beaten by Bournemouth, Brighton and Tottenham. Spurs also eliminated the band led by Guardiola in the Cup. In total, the Mancunian club has not won for seven matches, in all competitions.
Manchester City have been plagued by senior injuries for weeks. Now, there are only three absent: Rodri, Mateo Kovacic and Oscar Bobb. The momentum has since waned and the reigning four-time PL winner has lost height.
As a result, the gap with Liverpool is now significant. 11 points separate the two rivals after only 13 days played. Will Man City be able to catch up?
