Jamie Carragher has aimed a dig at Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola after his side suffered another loss on Wednesday.

Manchester City suffered another blow on Wednesday night as they lost 2-0 to Serie A giants Juventus in a Champions League clash at the Allianz Arena.

The result adds to the terrible run of form that has seen the Premier League champions win just one match in their last 10 and is the sixth away loss in seven.

And when reacting to the result, popular pundit Carragher brutally broke down what is happening at City as he aimed a dig at legendary manager Guardiola.

Speaking on CBS Sports, the ex-Liverpool defender pointed to Guardiola's lack of experience in any similar situation as a potential reason for City's terrible form.

He said: "You can't believe what you're seeing, this is a massive crisis. The greatest and most successful manager potentially of all time, and he's got no answers for it right now.

"He has tried different things and different systems but a manager as great as him is really really struggling and finding it tough.

"He's never gone through this before, he's got no experience in this situation so he's got nothing to fall back on.

"There's probably a lot of coaches around the world looking at Pep with a wry smile, thinking 'finally Pep Guardiola is going through something that we've all been through."

Carragher also addressed the recent announcement that Guardiola had signed a new two-year deal with the club, extending his stay until 2027.

When asked by host Kate Scott about what Guardiola was thinking after Wednesday's loss, Carragher joked: "Why did I sign that contract? That what he's thinking."

The loss to Juventus leaves City 22nd out of 36 teams in the Champions League table and just one point ahead of their next opponents Paris Saint-Germain, who are in 25th and occupy the first elimination spot.

Guardiola's side will travel to Paris on 22 January for the match before hosting Belgian side Club Brugge in their final Champions League fixture of the group stage.

But before they return to European action, City first will welcome local rivals Manchester United to the Etihad for an exciting Premier League clash this weekend.
