adminLONDON. — Manchester City are so far off the pace in the English Premier League title race because they cannot cope in big games. Manuel Pellegrini’s men have won none, drawn three and lost six of their nine games against sides sitting in the top six, with their latest defeat coming in the derby by Manchester United on Sunday.
A mini table between the top six shows how City sit bottom on three points while Arsenal are top, showing how Arsene Wenger’s side can turn up against the big boys.
City lost to United at the Etihad Stadium as Marcus Rashford’s goal in the 16th minute saw the red half of Manchester join the fight for Champions League football next season.
Louis van Gaal’s side sit just one point behind Pellegrini’s in the Premier League and City still have to plan to face Paris Saint-Germain in the quarter-finals of Europe’s elite competition next month. It means Pep Guardiola is in danger of moving to Manchester in the summer and having to compete in the Europa League. — Mailonline.
