Manchester United Fans Taunt Guardiola with 'Sacked in the Morning' Chants

Manchester City's recent struggles continued with a dramatic 2-1 loss to Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium. Late goals from Bruno Fernandes and Amad Diallo overturned City's lead, marking their eighth defeat in the last eleven matches. This alarming downturn has placed the club in a full-blown crisis, with manager Pep Guardiola experiencing one of the most challenging periods of his coaching career.

In the aftermath of the match, jubilant United fans seized the moment to taunt Guardiola, chanting, 'You're getting sacked in the morning.' The 53-year-old manager appeared visibly dejected during his post-match press conference, candidly admitting, 'I have to find a solution, and I haven't been able to. I'm not good enough; that's the truth.'

Despite signing a two-year contract extension last month, Guardiola has previously acknowledged the precariousness of his position should the team's poor form persist. The defeat to their city rivals has intensified scrutiny, with fans and pundits alike questioning the future of the decorated manager.

United supporters, elated by their team's comeback victory, continued their chants until Guardiola exited the pitch and headed down the tunnel, underscoring the mounting pressure on the Manchester City boss.
