I don't think anyone who knows about Manchester City's performance in the UEFA Champions League in recent years coupled with the fact that they're being me managed by one of the best football managers in the world at the moment would ever want to rate Manchester City as a "weak" team. Considering the importance of Manchester City's game at Paris Saint Germaine, I expect them to approach that game with the best they have since it'll be a make or mar encounter. Their hosts Paris Saint Germaine are also sitting in a dangerous position in the UEFA Champions League table and would also want to get all three points in that game so I expect a very difficult game for both teams.
Man City isn't a bad team, they are still a strong team. I'm sure Man City still has a chance to reach semi-final or even final round. However, Guardiola must improve the performance of the players and their mentality. But to think about the next round, Man City must secure full points in the latest 2 matches in this league phase. Man City will play against PSG and Club Brugge, this won't be easy matches. Especially playing against PSG, they are also strong team and expect to get full points as well. But I am still confident with Man City as long as they will play with their main lineup.
I just hope you don't get disappointed in City at the end of the day, because I don't see how City will be able to make it to the semifinals or finals, when we haven't seen them in their best form. Personally, I think you are hyping them too much, because what I see is their old glory in them and not a fight of victory this season. Pep needs to do whatever magic he has to do fast, before it's too late.  Grin
don't blame him.
it is always hard to face the current reality about some of these teams that have been really good in the past but cant stand up to the heat of the present. we tend to always try to find a way of looking at possibilities that looks so slim to push them upfront even when the reality downs on us that things have really changed and the fact is that they might not even proceed out of this current phase. it is just like what is happening to real Madrid, we all want to see them going above this phase but we all know how slim the odds are but what can we say, even though the odds are slim, this is what they are good at doing, they can fight never to loose any of the coming games they are playing from now and luck can just shine on them and they get to win all the remaining games, but the question is, how realistic is that?

lucky for them, things has started looking better for them and if not that they are already at a tight corner where they have to be almost a perfect team with no further losses, it is no something that is bigger than them to do when it comes to coming out of this sort of tight angle. it is that kind of moment when you have to prove to other teams that you are a champion and that you have what it takes to do what only champions can do
