MANCHESTER, England (REUTERS) - Manchester City's surprise rule of three defeats in four games, the latest in Wednesday's (Dec 26) 2-1 rout at Leicester City, has been widely approved to one easy cause - the malingering of defensive midfielder Fernandinho.Yet, while the Brazilian's disrespect has clearly dented their Premier League title defence, unadulterated the malingering of any involved replacement to shield their defence, City's woes rule deeper than the loss of just one individual, however influential.The defeats at Chelsea and Leicester and at house to Crystal Palace, bearing in mind abandoned a house win adjoining Everton limiting the damage, have seen Pep Guardiola's champions fall from visceral distinct favourites and leaders to third place. They are now a reduction at the rear Spurs and seven at the rear summit side Liverpool, who visit the Etihad on Jan 3.Last season's record-breaking title win was built on remarkable consistency, in results of course but then in terms of the starting line-up and approach.Yet while the inevitable injuries picked in the works through a season did little to knock City off course last term, this season Guardiola has had to agreement bearing in mind not just the recent loss of Fernandinho but then of several key players at the thesame time. David Silva missed City's last five games previously returning at Leicester and his importance to the team's trademark style was completely highlighted in the recent losses.For what Fernandinho provides in solidity, defensive protection and the ability to stop counter-attacks and challenger momentum, Silva matches as the critical link in the short, fast passing game which makes City as a result difficult to defend against.Silva not abandoned provides goals and assists, but brings out the best in those vis--vis him, particularly wide players Leroy Sane and Raheem Sterling, who have both been out of sorts in recent performances.Sane and Sterling know that bearing in mind Silva has the ball, the Spaniard, bearing in mind his unadulterated reading of angles and timing, will locate them if they create a move.Without Silva, they have too often customary the ball bearing in mind stationary, allowing defenders become old to set in the works and nullify them on the other hand of finding themselves on the back foot visceral attacked bearing in mind encroachment and impetus.Kevin De Bruyne is different to have abandoned recently returned from long-term disrespect and, while City initially coped bearing in mind the malingering of the Belgian central midfielder, they have missed his ability to swiftly twist defence into injury bearing in mind a surging rule or sweeping pass.Much of the focus on City's encroachment last season was placed on the full back positions but bearing in mind Benjamin Mendy injured, Fabian Delph has, of late, rarely looked much more than an agreeable replacement.Worse, England defender Kyle Walker's form has been shaky and he paid the price for a poor acquit yourself in the 3-2 house rout to Palace by losing his area at Leicester bearing in mind Danilo preferred at right-back.The defence is no longer as solid, the midfield has missed key elements and the take up line is not involved anywhere close full effectiveness."What we have to pull off is try and modify the involved to winning games. We are able to pull off that but I have to reflect myself, think nearly what the team needs and try to back them," said Guardiola."That is what will thing me for the neighboring few days. fine results are miracles for the mind and I have to back the players come back, modify something and try to win again."A vacation to Southampton is neighboring on Sunday and, bearing in mind Spurs and Liverpool in full flow, City can ill-afford different stumble if they are to avoid a poor December becoming an irretrievable slump.
