    Silva’s heat-map and 12 ground duels won along with a goal and an assist is so ridiculously impressive. City cannot let him leave in the summer he’s to key in this system and his work rate is absolutely unmatched.

      The difference now is there is no longer any control or leadership many of those signings were not even Potter signings ..
      PSG suffer from the fact that there are literally no other French teams who offer any type of opposition and the entire PSG squad are continually unprepared when the tough games start in the CL..
      Never said it was easy but come on having unlimited resources gives pep a great advantage every season.

    I'm a Real Madrid fan, but I think this is Manchester City's year in the UCL. Pep seems to be going for the Treble when people least expect him to win it. Reminds of 2020-21 Man City season, but the difference is City had a 20 (?) win streak starting in January, including a crazy run in the UCL, so everyone saw City as the top team back then. Now, City has quietly improved throughout the season and they're in contention for all three competitions. Let's see how it ends!

    agreed... City can be stifled but now they have a foil for their will - Haaland. If PepBall is not working, then they they can go mano-e-mano and know that De Bruyne, Foden, Silva & Grealish will beat their man and Haaland will bury the chance... whilst knowing that they always have the back door closed with 3 and 2. This team is geared to score with anything between 35-85% possession - and no previous Pep team could say that.

    City team has always been good and a Champions League favorite, but the problem is their mentality, especially in crucial moments. This season, or last season, or even the one when they reached the final with Chelsea, if you ask me can they win the CL, the answer will always be yes, if only they could keep their mentality straight. They almost packed a win against Madrid but those 2 last minute goals were the typical example of their mentality. This season they being 2nd in the Premier League is also due to their mentality. After a win against Arsenal, they conceded a draw against Forest, which still is the same problem. If they can keep up this morale and spirit and play at this level of football, nothing will stop them. But if they burn out, everything will fall apart and the mentality problem will punish them again.
