It was in the 89th minute that the team was shut out, but the full picture now exemplifies many of the problems, with Guardiola still obsessed with the idea that he wants the team to fulfill the picture he dreamed up in his head, rather than adapting the team's tactics to the reality of the situation.

Started to play a defensive counterattack, but this defensive counterattack is always still established in the opponent's failure to attack the ball loss of possession in the future to start.
The team still revolves around possession, and in this final, against Leicester City, who have a slightly weaker midfield, Guardiola has no problem playing possession, but his mistake is that the team does not have a high center forward, but also always want to carry the ball to the side and then cross the ball. Does he want Sterling or Gündoğan to fight for the header? Often famous managers have their own obsessive points, and to some extent that's one of the things that makes them famous, but that doesn't mean you can win games just by dreaming about them. Guardiola has long since now proved his ability, but right now his problem is more like being in shackles and a mess of ideas.

Regardless of how glorious the old days have taken the record, now he is holding a hand of good cards to play a bad.
