Is Pep Guardiola's Job at Man City Under Threat?

There was an interesting chant sung by Brighton fans after the victory over Manchester City. They sang the chant 'Fired in the morning' aimed at Man City manager, Josep Guardiola. Brighton and Man City faced off in the 11th week of the Premier League on Sunday. As the away team, Man City suffered a 2-1 defeat in the match at the AMEX Stadium.

The Citizens played well in the first half and took the lead through Erling Haaland's goal. However, in the second half, Joao Pedro and Mattew O'Riley were able to score goals and turn the score around for Brighton.

For Man City, this result is a big blow. Because, for the first time in the Pep Guardiola era, the Blues lost four games in a row. Many interesting events happened in the final minutes of the Brighton vs Man City match. Manchester Evening News journalist’s report on what happened at the AMEX Stadium in the final stages of the match.

The Journalist says there was tension on the touchline and says Pep Guardiola had a 'tantrum'. He argued with Brighton staff and defender Jan Paul van Hecke. Meanwhile, in the stands, Brighton fans sang a special chant for the Spaniard. Brighton fans sang something that roughly means 'fired in the morning'. "Attention will turn to his future now during the international window when he would normally sign a contract extension," wrote Joe Bray, who also suggested Guardiola was coming under pressure.

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp did not believe in Man City's performance in the second half. The 51-year-old veteran did not see Man City who usually performs well and can find solutions. He considered Man City to be at a very low level. "It was one of the worst spells of football I have ever seen from a Pep Guardiola team. They were so poor, they didn't defend, they didn't win individual battles," said Redknapp.

"Their first half was very good but the second half when Hurzeler came on there was only one team that was going to win it," Redknapp stressed.
