In the midst of all that has happened, PEP still tries so hard to give his beat but then it's sad that some how it still effected the productivity of the team recently, it's a natural interference of emotions that cannot be completely ignored or fought away just like that and so it happened that it gets to interfere with our wellbeing for the while until we probably get over it and I think same is with the case of Guardiola, he's definitely going to get passed this and hopefully become strong and better.
If there is one thing we have learned from this team, it is that they are very well reborn. Let's see today how they do against Real Madrid. I am a big fan of Madrid, obviously I am going for them, but I want to know how much City has improved. The last time they played, Madrid won and went through. In fact, they reached the final. Let's see if City can take advantage of the vulnerabilities that Madrid has in defense, which is no secret to anyone that it is their greatest weakness right now.
Ancelotti always has aces up his sleeve. It may be that he has greatly corrected his defense.
Valverde, Camavinga start in a 4-2-3-1: How Real Madrid can line up against Man City
Quote
Reports emerged earlier today suggesting that Ancelotti had tried Ferland Mendy at right-back in the absence of Carvajal and Vazquez, with Fran Garcia on the left side, in training.
While that may be a solution, fielding the new combination in such a high-stakes encounter could be a huge risk. As such, the likely approach is that the Real Madrid boss goes with Federico Valverde as his makeshift right-back.
Ferland Mendy ought to line up on the left side of the defence to provide more defensive solidity.
Meanwhile, with no senior centre-back fit and available the pair of Raul Asencio and Aurelien Tchouameni become the guaranteed starters in front of Thibaut Courtois in goal.

On a personal note, I don't think Tchouameni will be a starter, but it seems that what Ancelotti thinks is something very special, for me he is the biggest gap there is and Pep knows it, I don't know why Ancelotti insists so much on that player.
