If I understand the ShowOff post correctly then I think the point is that Manchester City has a great chance to defend the Premier League title for 4 consecutive times after they managed to win it 3 times in a row in the last 3 seasons. I think so too, but of course it's different when it comes to the Champions League.
It is always difficult to determine who will win the Champions League title, especially when the season has not started. Manchester City certainly have a chance to repeat their success, but to defend the Champions League title then I think it is the most difficult challenge for any coach. Pep Guardiola is expected to keep his chances good, but all the teams that will be competing in the Champions League will also be pushing for the title.
With the depth of the players they have, as well as a very competent coach. Manchester City, remains the favorite in both the Premier League and Champions League. Currently, City is in its heyday after winning the treble winner. therefore, it would be very natural for City to defend the title they won for the 2023/2024 season. are they able, obviously they are able to defend the title they won. the probability of an opportunity to repeat like the 2022/2023 season is wide open for City even though several of their core players have left in this summer's transfer window.
It's just that, on the way we don't know what obstacles they will face. to be sure, some clubs in the premier league will try to become a strong competitor like Arsenal for example. also, in this competition there are some pretty strong competitors who might be able to thwart City's progress to the next phase. uniquely, in football nothing is certain. therefore, anything can happen and several other strong competitors will also try their best to be the best in this competition. Let's see first, how when these teams carry out their matches in their domestic league competition. after all, this competition still has a long way to go.
