Guardiola lamented that this season is the most difficult year in 16 years of coaching

There are too many injured soldiers in the team, and their competitive record has declined. Manchester City coach Guardiola has been in football for many years and said bluntly that this season is the most difficult season since his leading coaching career.

Guardiola has led Barcelona and Manchester City to become the treble champions in 16 years of coaching career, but his competitive record this season is poor and the Premier League has failed to defend its title. Now there are only two goals left to keep the top 5 in the Premier League and the FA Cup. The famous Spanish coach said before the Premier League match against Southampton on Saturday: "This is the most difficult thing, it must be. It's very hard and very hard. When you can't win, it's very hard to prepare for the game, mood and everything, emotionally."

There are many wounded soldiers in Manchester City this season, and the main midfielder Rodri is almost absent for the entire season, and the scorer Haaland is also on standby for more than a month, so he is expected to make a comeback in this game. "There are many players in the team who are injured and there are no substitute players. Many times, everyone has to make different attempts, but they have not been able to do it. I have not been able to find ways to make players comfortable and win games."

However, Guardiola emphasized that this season has not ended: "We are still striving to qualify for the Champions League next season, which is a big reward, and the FA Cup."
