Jamie Carragher backs Manchester City to finally win the Champions League

Former Liverpool player Jamie Carragher believes that Manchester City can finally win the Champions League when the tournament resumes from suspension. Champions League has been suspended due to coronavirus pandemic and it is hoped that the competition will resume some time in August. "I do not see any side in the tournament better than City, or any who will match the intensity of the Tottenham and Liverpool sides which denied Guardiola in the past two years," Carragher told The Telegraph. "Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and Bayern Munich are the greatest threats, although the LaLiga champions still have work to do to beat Napoli, and Bayern must finish the job against Chelsea to reach the quarter-finals. "Even if City are paired against the French and Spanish champions, I believe the technical nature of those games would suit the English club. They would be much different types of encounters to their past two quarter-final defeats. "PSG have a massive disadvantage going back into a tournament without having played any league football because the French league was cancelled, and Barca are not what they were — the manner of their most recent exits, to Roma and Liverpool, showed that. "That leaves Guardiola's former club as the most dangerous potential opponents, helped by their earlier return to Bundesliga action. I still believe City are stronger. "That is why, wherever and whenever the competition concludes, City are my favourites. I doubt there will be a club that wants it more than them." source - DailyMail
