Manchester City's next opponent is Liverpool, which is leading the Premier League. The difference between Manchester City and Liverpool is eight points. If Manchester City loses again here, it will be easily widened by 11 points.
Football expert Alan Shearer pointed out that `They look weak, they look light, they look weak.'
BBC football pundit Andros Townsend said "We have never seen such weakness in Manchester City before. In recent years, all games are like this."
Gael Clichy, a football expert from Manchester City, diagnosed that the team does not seem to have a leader.
Clichy says "There is no leader who speaks out. We need a strong leader in defense."
Pep Guardiola was also frustrated.
`I don't know if it's a mental problem,' he lamented.
Guardiola said "The game went well with 3-0. Well done. But we were not stable. He allowed a lot of goals. It became difficult by allowing the first goal and giving the second goal. We played well, but we can't win at this level."

Guardiola said "There's no time to think we're going to win all three of our remaining games and finish in the top eight. We need to recover first and prepare for the next game. If you don't win a game like today, it's hard to win."
Guardiola did not blame Gvardiol for making a fatal defensive mistake.
Guardiola said "He will learn. He is the best player on the field. What a fantastic player. We need to get help more than ever."
British broadcaster BBC reported 'Man City were drawn with a three-point lead. Their miserable performance continued at the Etihad Stadium. Man City looked to be cruising, but the Netherlands' team launched a stunning counterattack.
The BBC reported that Guardiola shook his head in disbelief after Manchester City allowed an equaliser. Some Manchester City fans booed him.
