It's actually a bit more complicated than that. First of all, their group is way stronger than others. Then, if you look at their CL results, you'll see that their only fail is the 1-1 draw against Napoli on Matchday 1. Their loss to Bayern came as no surprise as Bayern were clearly the favorites of the group, mostly due to their experience as a collective, not because of the individual quality of the players.
Napoli, on the other hand, don't have the CL experience, but are more closely linked, and they have that crazy mentality which became the identity of their team. I don't want to state that City are a "team of mercenaries", but they are in search of their style identity, so to speak. Up to this season, they were the bunker team 4-5-1 formation with Barry, Milner, DeJong, and Yaya Toure as regular "trequartista" certainly didn't spell very attacking football. Now, as Silva's creativity becomes more and more influential, coupled with the arrival of Aguero, they can no longer play such closed football. While Napoli and Bayern have clearcut ideas what to do and how to do it, I feel Manchester City are unclear about how to confront them.
The core of Napoli has been the same for a season or two, prior to this one, and their idea of football - 3-4-3, fast paces on flanks, forward crosses for Cavani and Lavezzi, and overall tendency to keep pushing forward, it's being perfected from season to season. Let's be clear, having a monster like Cavani as a centre-forward sure helps you win the games, I mean, the guy scores a hat-trick once a month, that can't be bad for the team. But, it was their idea that sucker-punched City on MD 1 in Manchester, and now it's come to haunt City. Sure, Bayern might rest a player or two, City might even win the game, but I don't know who will persuade Villareal to even try snatching a point away from Napoli, especially since a vast majority of their first team is injured.
Oh, and it's not that City are so superior to other PL teams. If you look closely, the only Big 6 sides they've faced this season were Manchester and Tottenham (yes, they can be considered Big 6, especially with Adebayor). When they beat Tottenham, the air of last season's disappointment was still in the air on White Hart Lane. Crouch, the lazy useless turd, was still the frontline attacker, Kranjčar was playing out of his position on CM and Modrić was devastated that his transfer to Chelsea didn't go through (I don't want to make it sound as if the Croats at WHL are what runs the show, but I think these were the spots in which the proverbial shit started to slip in that game). Redknapp even stated later on that Luka didn't even want to play.
Regarding Man United game, it went pretty good until stupid Evans got the red card (deservedly). After that, United kept pressing with man down, and City kept counter-attacking successfully, though it didn't matter anymore, in terms of points.
City face Liverpool this weekend, always a tough opponent, followed by games against Chelsea and ever-improving Arsenal during December. When these three games are played (not to mention some minor games which also might dent their title hopes), then let's see who's in form. For now, let us remember that around this time last season, or maybe a week or two ago, Chelsea were proclaimed Premier League/ Champions League winners by majority of fans. Even I had to concede, they would probably win the PL. And we all know what happened next. Let's not count the chickens 'till they hatch.

Hahaha Fatman srsly nothing personal but its too funny
Impossible to translate sorry :P
Heh, what's there to be offended about? Real owned their ass, pure and simple, plus it's a good pic
The translation would be something as:
I want a girl that takes it in like Dinamo
and puts it out like Real
(acc. to Webster Dict. to put out can mean something similar to produce an effort)
