City still has a chance to advance to the next round even though they have to go through the play-off round. And Pep as a coach must be able to maximize that opportunity well. and in my opinion with his experience, Pep should be able to bring City back to winning ways, plus Pep has enough time to improve City's performance in the Champions League, because City will return to competing in the Champions League on January 23, 2025, where City will travel to Pcs Des Princes to face the strongest team in the French league, namely PSG. A fairly difficult match, but a great coach is a coach who is able to take advantage of and maximize the opportunities he gets even though they are very small.
Depending on the results obtained at the last match. Consideration of the last match that will take place simultaneously, Manchester City will be a away team that will play at home to PSG. You can judge for yourself how PSG is now in the Champions League table. PSG is in 25th position with 7 points. Meanwhile Manchester City collected 8 points and is in 22 position.
If Manchester City is able to take 1 point against PSG and in another match Stuttgart is able to win 3 points, Manchester City will automatically fail to advance to the last 16.
Manchester City and PSG are at least elite teams that are not in a good position at this moment, although Manchester City is still in a better position than PSG but still, they should be in the upper zone of the standings or at least in the top eight. Thus, the winning result is certainly the result that remains their target but at the same time,that Manchester City and PSG at this moment are also both in bad performance especially about Manchester City which is also bad in the Premier League. Thus,maybe their last match could be the decider when Manchester City plays at home against Club Brugge and PSG plays away against Stuttgart. Because I think, for the match between PSG vs Manchester City maybe the result could be a draw.
