Everyone has the freedom to choose who is the best team and their favorite, for example if I am big fan and so fanatical about Barcelona then whatever happens and whatever the conditions are as long as Barcelona still has chance then clearly they are the most favorite team, for now I think everything is still the same because the competition is tighter and more competitive when it enters the knockout system in the last 16 and so on until the final.
Manchester City can also still be team in the title race, it is too much to judge everything from now on and it is better to see it later when it has entered the quarter-finals because in this phase we will really see which team is worthy and really strong.
The assessment of any team at this time will indeed not be so accurate if we look at the opportunities that still exist for several teams that are in the top eight of the standings and also in the top 25 of the current Champions League standings. But when it is in the round of 16, everything can almost be judged clearly because that round is quite a challenging round in the Champions League because the losers have to go home directly to their respective places. So I also want to see how Manchester City will fare in the next two games in this round of the standings.
