Manchester City News: Can Pep Guardiola regain his long-lost UEFA Champions League title?
Manchester City News: The Sky Blues breezed through to the round of 16 in the 2021/22 UEFA Champions League. But the real challenge for Pep Guardiola’s team starts now! Pep Guardiola has done an amazing job at Manchester City since joining the club in 2016. Fast forward to 2022, the Sky Blues have assembled one of the most “complete” squads in the world. Manchester City is currently on top of the Premier League table. Guardiola’s side has amassed 63 points from 25 Premier League games. Owing to this, they are 9-points clear of second-placed Liverpool at the moment. Similarly, the Sky Blues have eased into the 5th round of the FA Cup as well. But City will now be shifting their attention completely to the Champions League as they look to win the trophy that they have never won.
Manchester City News: Can Pep Guardiola help Manchester City win their first Champions League trophy?
Manchester City News: Can Pep Guardiola regain his long-lost UEFA Champions League title? As stated earlier, Manchester City have assembled one of the best teams in recent years. The Sky Blues have won three Premier League titles since Guardiola’s arrival. And they look the favourites to win the league in 2022 as well. But even though City have been unstoppable in England, the same cannot be said about Europe. Even Though they have been one of the best teams in the last decade, Manchester City are yet to win their first Champions League title.
Pep Guardiola has had to be content seeing his rival Jurgen Klopp win Liverpool the title in 2019. Things seemed to be going Manchester City’s way as they reached the finals of the 2020/21 Champions League. Manchester City faced Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea in the finals and were the overwhelming favourites. But Kai Havetz’s strike ensured that the Champions League title would be going to the Blues from London and not Manchester. Following their finals disappointment last season, Manchester City are gearing up to go deep into the competition once again. Their first hurdle in the knockout stage would be Sporting Lisbon in the round of 16. Pep Guardiola last won the Champions League with Barcelona in 2011. Since then, the Spaniard has failed to win it with world-class teams at Bayern Munich and Manchester City. Hence it has to be seen if the City manager could prove his worth.
Joao Cancelo has his say on the Champions League
Manchester City defender Joao Cancelo is expected to start in the game against Sporting Lisbon. The defender accepted that there is a lot of pressure on the players to get the title. But he added that it is not an obligation.
Joao Cancelo said “We take it game by game. We have one of the best squads in Europe but winning this isn’t an obligation. You have to go up against the best. We are capable of winning it but it is a very tough competition.”
