I agree with you. That is why being a team that has won the Champions League in a row like Real Madrid has done is a prestigious record that is very proud and will become a historical record. I can say that it will be a little difficult for City to become champions of the Champions League again. This opportunity will still exist, but I think currently Munich is the favorite to win. I bet this year's UCL will be taken to Germany. I also predict that by looking at the participating clubs this year, I see City's chances of reaching the final or semifinals. This is my personal opinion.
To win the UCL trophy in a row will be quite a tough thing for a team other than Real Madrid. But for Manchester City they still have hope of winning a trophy this season because they have the same strong squad depth as last season. Maybe they need Kevin leadership to achieve all that because he is one of the most important players in the Manchester City squad. To maintain balance, of course they must be able to maintain their performance quite well this season.
Munich, maybe they are quite strong this season, they have improved quite well in strengthening to become stronger. Yes, Bayern Munich is the strongest candidate if you look at their quality this season and to win the UCL trophy they have to try quite hard this season. Apart from that, we will also see which teams will reach the round of 16.
