Many pointed fingers at striker Joshua Zirkzee, who was partly blamed for allowing a free header from Dean Huijsen for the opener.

Despite Manchester City's struggles in recent matches, manager Pep Guardiola remains optimistic about their chances of regaining their confidence and climbing the league table. A late goal from Phil Foden was not enough for City to avoid a 2-1 loss to Aston Villa, managed by former Arsenal boss Unai Emery.

However, Haaland remains confident in Guardiola to lead them to success.
After an 11-month goal drought in the Premier League, Gabriel Jesus scored a brace against Crystal Palace to solidify his place in the Arsenal squad. With five goals in two games, the former Manchester City striker has proven his worth in the title race and is ready for more opportunities.

With a renewed confidence and smile on his face, Jesus' message to Arteta is loud and clear - he's here to stay and make a significant impact.
Gabriel Jesus' hat-trick against Crystal Palace marks a triumphant return to form for the Brazilian striker, giving Arsenal a much needed boost in their quest for the Premier League title.

But with a lack of firepower in their squad, Arteta may need to consider strengthening in the January transfer window to truly solidify their chances.
Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has confessed to his recent scoring drought and expressed the team's faith in coach Pep Guardiola to turn things around. The defending champions are currently 6th in the table and have suffered 9 defeats in the last 12 matches. Despite this, Haaland and his teammates have full confidence in Guardiola and are determined to make a comeback.
Aston Villa shocked the Premier League champions with a 2-1 win, thanks in part to Morgan Rogers' excellent performance.

Meanwhile, Manchester City struggled with their possession game and ultimately succumbed to Villa's attack. Another standout player for Villa was Youri Tielemans, who emphasized the importance of bravery and risk-taking in securing the win.
