Mbappe position is quite confusing, on the other hand he wants to be in Madrid immediately but he also has an agreement to finish this season with PSG. Madrid actually opened the door too much for Mbappe, who had rejected offers many times in the past. Now Madrid needs to show a little ego that they are a big club that Mbappe cannot play with. Even though I know Florentino desire for Mbappe is very clear, it is still important to maintain Madrid good name. Let Mbappe finish with his own decisions because at PSG I see there is a kind of shackles that he can't get rid of yet.

You are right, Manchester City has quite the advantage after the break in the round of 16. Because they now have the opportunity to improve their squad and ensure that each of their key players returns in top condition and free from injury. This is also another starting point for Manchester City to achieve victory more quickly. Not only in the UCL, because in the Domestic League the targets are quite tough requiring Pep Guardiola to be more careful with the tight player rotation schedule that needs to be carried out continuously to avoid undesirable things.
