Pep Guardiola's decision to extend his contract at Manchester City for two more years presents him with a golden opportunity to continue his successful streak in the English Premier League.
Currently, however, he faces the difficult task of reversing a four-game losing streak that has left City trailing Liverpool by five points at the top. This poor run of form has seen City exit the English League Cup and suffer a Champions League defeat against Sporting Lisbon.
With senior players like Kevin De Bruyne and Kyle Walker battling injuries and age, and a once-formidable defense now looking shaky, Guardiola's squad faces a tough road ahead. Yet, Manchester City's past under Guardiola is filled with comeback stories, suggesting that another winning run may be just around the corner.
