Well, inspired by gnegnery's thread, i would like to remind that february is a bad month in Guardiola's era..
(have omitted august due to lack of games, preseason)
(W, D, L) _Sept_ _Oct_ _Novb_ _Dec_ __Jan_ __Feb_ __Mar__ _April_ _May_
08/09: (4,1,0) (6,0,0) (6,2,0) (4,0,0) (7,1,0) (3,2,1) (4,1,1) (5,3,0) (3,2,0) -> i excluded the last three 'friendly' games after drawing villareal
09/10: (5,1,0) (3,2,1) (4,2,0) (6,0,0) (5,1,1) (3,1,1) (5,2,0) (6,1,1) (4,0,0)
10/11: (4,1,1) (5,1,0) (6,1,0) (4,1,0) (7,1,1) (3,1,1) (-,-,-) (-,-,-) (-,-,-)
With the excepton of october 2009, it seems that in february we can manage only 3 wins in a total of 6 games..
But what i think is that the decline in our shape comes form mid-february to early march during a 5 game spell on average(that's why i marked some march results also..)
08/09 (from 14 feb to 04 march): 5 games: 0 wins, 3 draws, 2 losses
09/10 (from 14 feb to 06 march): 5 games: 2 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss
10/11 (from 12 feb to 02 march possibly): 5 games (3 played) : 1 win, 1 draw, 1 loss
