They would have the potential without a doubt, the team is made up of strong players, however from a morale point of view i see it with a negative outlook, i don't see them motivated and i don't see how they can get out of the ditch. In my opinion they won't get to the Champions League and i think the coach is risking his job
We can say anything about Manchester City's performance but they need to adjust themselves as best they can because the matches at the end of the season are always tighter because every team certainly does not want to lose their chances. Indeed, if you look at the depth of their team, of course Manchester City's performance is better and has the opportunity to close the season in the top 4, especially now the difference in points is not much different so Manchester City is more favored to reach the top 4.
Apart from that, we will also see how consistent Nottingham Forest is in maintaining their ranking in 3rd position because they still have 9 matches to complete. So if they are not consistent, of course they will lose the chance to play in the Champions League next season. However, in the fight for the title, I think this season will belong to Liverpool because they are still quite safe at the top of the standings with a 12-point lead.
