4 Players Pep Guardiola Should Drop If He Wants Manchester City to Perform Better vs Liverpool

Manchester City appeared to be cruising to victory in the Champions League on Tuesday after establishing a 3-0 lead over Feyenoord.

However, their defensive frailties came back to haunt them, resulting in a shocking 3-3 draw.

Here are the players who should be dropped.

Ederson

The City goalkeeper had moments of competence, notably stopping an early effort from Paixao. However, his performance unraveled in the closing stages.

A lapse in focus saw him poorly positioned for Feyenoord's second goal, and he was partly responsible for the equaliser.

The Brazilian goalie lack of urgency when trying to halt Hadj Moussa only added to the defensive chaos.

Josko Gvardiol

The defender had a tough outing despite some notable recovery runs. One careless pass to Phil Foden, which was intercepted, hinted at a lack of focus.

The Croatian centre-back most huge error came when he handed Feyenoord a golden opportunity to get back into the game.

Foden's display was far from his usual standards. He blocked a goal-bound attempt from Jack Grealish and struggled to make an impact.

The England attacker's own shot was saved brilliantly, but his overall performance lacked creativity and sharpness.

Jack Grealish

Making his return to the starting lineup, Grealish failed to impress.

A missed opportunity to extend City's lead to 4-0 proved costly.

The England international's deflected effort onto the crossbar in the dying moments summed up a frustrating evening for the winger.
