If Santa Claus came to everyone with gifts at Christmas, he would have accidentally missed two Manchester teams. Manchester teams have been suffering from a series of bad results at Christmas. The situation of both teams is bad enough to say the least.

I have been asking myself for a long time why Manchester City and Guardiola have won so many games. It can be said that their main players are injured, but even after Kovacic returned, the situation has not changed much for Manchester City. Although they have shown signs of improvement in terms of performance, their results have not been exceptional.

Except for the last victory over Forest, they have not been able to beat all the other teams. At least they have lost to Manchester United, who are like a bottle of wine. In the match against Everton, they thought they had won because they scored a goal in the first half, but they conceded a goal and ended in a draw. Haaland has also been under increasing pressure since he has not taken a penalty. For all the praise he received when he was able to do so, now Haaland is being criticized with increasing intensity.

But worse than City is Manchester United. Amorin, a coach with a thousand and six thousand problems, is chasing Charl. He won against City, but since that game he has been in trouble. City's problems will probably be solved in time, but United's problems are not. The question is whether he can overcome this mountain. Amorin has been under pressure for less than two months after his arrival.

He arrived on November 11 and has only been in charge for a little over a month, but when he arrived, the games were so tight and he had to work very hard. When he was playing three games in a row, he also had a problem with whether he had enough training time to adapt to his system. United have been struggling with problems for a long time. Now, at a time when there are not enough players good enough to play as a full-back, there is no player who can play as a winger. Mazraoui can only play as a winger, and Dalot has clearly shown that he can't. Dalot can't, and neither can Messi. Luke Shaw is sick.

Casemiro and Eriksen are not fit enough to be used as starters, and Kobe has been struggling since returning from injury. Meanwhile, Mason Mount is out with a hamstring injury that will keep him out until March, and Amorin has been unable to do so, and Ahmed Diallo, who has worked well as a winger in his early games, is being used as a right-back. Rashford has also had problems, and Gnacho has also been noticeably down this season. It's like Guardiola and Amorin are competing to see who is worse. Their current ambition is to get through the Christmas and New Year period as quickly as possible and to make the most of the winter transfer window.

Manchester City have a clear problem. If they can fill the void left by De Bruyne, who is no longer as good as he was due to age, and Rodri, who is out injured, can return to their current form. Haaland will also find his pace if he finds a way to score, and if he has someone who can create for him, he can do it. If possible, they will also have to fill the void left by Kyle Walker, and they will also have to deal with the increasing number of older players at City. Bernardo Silva and Gundogan are not young either. But it is not easy to make as many transfers as they need in the winter transfer window alone. In the winter, teams often do not have the time to sell their current players. So if they do, they will have to pay a lot of money.

United are the same. Even if Rashford is released, there will be a need for left and right wingers, those who can play in the back four, central midfielders and defensive wingers, but it will not be easy in January when there are only two places available. It is likely that only a defensive winger and a central midfielder will be needed. However, both Manchester clubs did not have the opportunity to enjoy the Christmas period that everyone was happy about. Their happiness will not come just by praying, but by working hard in all areas.
