Man City have had an up and down season under Pep Guardiola, leaving our fans here in the Tavern somewhat perplexed by what has gone on some weeks.

At times brilliant and at other times truly woeful, the City fans at the minute literally do not know what to make of where they might end up at the end of the season.

Part of the reason for the inconsistent performances is certain players dipping below the levels they have set themselves over previous years.

In a squad full of stars, some players have simply drowned under the pressure of being successful, and our landlord thinks a few City players have gone backwards under Pep.

With this in mind, we have taken a look at TWO Man City players who have regressed under Pep Guardiola...

Sergio Aguero

The Argentine strike might be getting the game time now that Gabriel Jesus is injured, but there is little denying he has not been himself under Guardiola.

Aguero has often looked short of confidence and not been his usual dynamic self, despite still leading the goal charts for City. The little striker will be hoping to get back to his best sooner rather than later though, whether that be at City, or elsewhere come the summer.

Fabian Delph

The former Leeds and Aston Villa is simply sitting on the sidelines under Pep, offering very little to the team and getting little to no game time.

This suggests the former Barcelona manager is not all that thrilled or impressed with Delph, and that he could well look to move him on. It is a shame for Delph, who had at one time in his career got himself well into the England set up.

However, that now seems a big distance away for the midfielder.
