English football analyst and former Liverpool defender, Jamie Carragher says Manchester City boss, Jamie Carragher cannot be sacked by the club.
In his words, Pep Guardiola is “unsackable” but is hopeful the manager can salvage his team and put them back to winning ways if he takes advantage of the January transfer window to fix his midfield problems.
Guardiola is on the worst run of his managerial career following five successive defeats for the Premier League champions.
Asked whether the Spaniard, who signed a two-year contract extension last week, was unsackable, Carragher told Sky Sports News: “Yes, he is. Sir Alex Ferguson was unsackable. I think Jurgen Klopp was probably unsackable at Liverpool.”
“There’s no way Manchester City would ever sack Pep Guardiola, even if he went two or three years without winning anything.”
“I always felt that at Liverpool, with Jurgen Klopp. If he went two or three years without winning a trophy, we’d all still want him to be our manager, and who would you ever get who’s better than Pep Guardiola?”
Saturday’s 4-0 defeat to Tottenham ended City’s 52-game unbeaten home run and was their heaviest home loss in any competition since February 2003.
Jamie Carragher argued Manchester City is not in crisis. “No, I wouldn’t use the word crisis. They’re still second in the Premier League.”
