Silva’s heat-map and 12 ground duels won along with a goal and an assist is so ridiculously impressive. City cannot let him leave in the summer he’s to key in this system and his work rate is absolutely unmatched.
Something different about this city team. They really believe and have added some very cup friendly traits; physicality in defence and a lethal striker. Not to mention Julian Alvarez.
It's bs 😂 ffs pep should have won it last year but for a final 5 mins of madness They were even bigger favourites this year with Halland .. Ffs with that squad I'd even give myself a shot of winning the CL 😂
@flocking_sheep_never_asleep ummmm Chelsea won the CL when Roman the oligarch came to town and dominated the league as well .. The difference now is there is no longer any control or leadership many of those signings were not even Potter signings .. PSG suffer from the fact that there are literally no other French teams who offer any type of opposition and the entire PSG squad are continually unprepared when the tough games start in the CL.. Never said it was easy but come on having unlimited resources gives pep a great advantage every season. I thought at the start of this Season the quadruple was a serious outcome for them
@my memories if man City win the CL this year there will not be much in it . City's big problem now is real Madrid seem to have the money again so there will be competition for the big signings Pep better win this year or he might leave it too late
@Amy Dean.... As a fellow Maine road and early Etihad days City fan... I too always think we'll blow it when it looks like we can't lose🙄... "Typical City" is just a meme for younger City fans but for us, it's what's going to happen if we get too cocky!!!! 😂
@@englanduk6131 fun fact... I allowed myself to hope ONCE. it was the day city could have beat the rags to win the league. My younger sister was giving me grief for being a downer but 2-0 at half time I BELIEVED!!! I SAID THE WORDS "WE CAN WIN IT" then we lost 3-2. Typical city 🤣 never again
This is our season and I feel it. Defense is so much better and the team is balanced . We've got a wildcard in Alvarez and yes we final have "our number 9" in Haaland.... And Silva is our most versatile player, happy he didn't go on transfer last summer maybe he saw this UCL title coming 😅
Football is very very interesting, isn't it? At first we knew the 'meta' attacking pattern was 3-2-5, then 3-2-2-3 (box midfield), then that same 3-2-2-3 seems different now just by using different position to fill the 2 anchors & the effect it has defensively.
Wow😲, just wow. Expert analysis, Amazing detail. The video is amazing. I like what Pep is doing, with this new system I really feel City can win the champions league🏆🏆. Who agrees with me?
agreed... City can be stifled but now they have a foil for their will - Haaland. If PepBall is not working, then they they can go mano-e-mano and know that De Bruyne, Foden, Silva & Grealish will beat their man and Haaland will bury the chance... whilst knowing that they always have the back door closed with 3 and 2. This team is geared to score with anything between 35-85% possession - and no previous Pep team could say that.
Technically, Pep is the best managing tactitian in the world although some might argue it's Klopp or others. He seems to never run out of ideas and plans. For every game, he has like a priority plan, followed by at least plans B, C, D, E, F and G.
I'm a Real Madrid fan, but I think this is Manchester City's year in the UCL. Pep seems to be going for the Treble when people least expect him to win it. Reminds of 2020-21 Man City season, but the difference is City had a 20 (?) win streak starting in January, including a crazy run in the UCL, so everyone saw City as the top team back then. Now, City has quietly improved throughout the season and they're in contention for all three competitions. Let's see how it ends!
This game is the perfect explanation why guardiola opposed him self on silva leaving last summer. When he was rumored to join ac milan I was so happy. But it was just impossibile 😫
The best tactics from pep so fat. in the yesteryear, pep only tactics is to flood opposition half in a countrpress. once this press is beaten the opposition scores. I advise pep to go for less risk possession to win UCL
To be honest, Arsenal are only leading because Pep was testing new strategies. Now everything is coming into place so Arsenal should be cautious. One more loss at the Etihad and they'll most likely lose the title.
Yeah they'll probably bottle it now since everyone is jinxing them. It's like how everyone think Brazil is gonna win the world cup. I bet you an italian team will win it.
@@AzureSkyes Either would have been decent and a victory. Im more burned up about Fernandihno because he had previous returned from injury and had played first team, undefeated, the weeks before the final. It was perfect timing.....but loused up

City team has always been good and a Champions League favorite, but the problem is their mentality, especially in crucial moments. This season, or last season, or even the one when they reached the final with Chelsea, if you ask me can they win the CL, the answer will always be yes, if only they could keep their mentality straight. They almost packed a win against Madrid but those 2 last minute goals were the typical example of their mentality. This season they being 2nd in the Premier League is also due to their mentality. After a win against Arsenal, they conceded a draw against Forest, which still is the same problem. If they can keep up this morale and spirit and play at this level of football, nothing will stop them. But if they burn out, everything will fall apart and the mentality problem will punish them again.
As we say in Brazil, if he is so great he should be the manager of a team like Goiás (imagine like Southampton this year) and be the champion. So easy when you have billions to spend in the very best players. It is a shame he only won 1 champions league.
Pep has reinvented? Hahahahahhaa Every season spend a lot of money trying to win champions league and every season he fails. Mourinho won the champions league with no money and with porto. Man city a team as bad as psg
City won 3 games out of 4 games against real. If you relly again on 2 last minute goals while having 0 shoots on target before 90th and after city adding haaland to team. Good luck
@@skrskrskrr5033 my friend, it’s played over 90 minutes, not 88. If real had scored those two goals in the first few minutes, would you say the same? Doesn’t matter when you score. Real Madrid don’t need to be good all throughout. They need very few chances to beat and city isn’t that strong.
On what basis? Last year SF leg 2?? Do you realize City and Madrid have equal H2H record against each other and City knocked out Madrid in 2020. They are both even but this is not the same City from last year, the defence is looking liek a wall this time while last time it chocked. I will rather wait for the actual SF to take place than make bold predictions
@@SpiceAndSauce regardless. 3 wins out of 4 games. And that game that real won happens once in hundred games. Good luck if you are gonna relly on that to win against city because you couldnt do it by dominating them over the last 4 games
Silva’s heat-map and 12 ground duels won along with a goal and an assist is so ridiculously impressive. City cannot let him leave in the summer he’s to key in this system and his work rate is absolutely unmatched.
They would need to sign someone like Musiala to replace him for the future
Can't imagine he almost leave us last summer

Bernardo silva being one of city's most important players while consistently coming off the bench
I’d go further Guardiola has adjusted the system to bring out the technical qualities of both Silva and Grealish who are amazing at keeping the ball.
Great video. as a City supporter I appreciate your understanding of what's going on.
Bernardo Silva is my favorite city player.
This game is the perfect explanation why guardiola opposed him self on silva leaving last summer. When he was rumored to join ac milan I was so happy. But it was just impossibile 😫

It annoys me that your ball has almost the same color as one team. Could you please change out one for visibility's sake?
City, Napoli or Inter winning it would be cool ngl
Real Madrid :(
You cannot write off multiple winners real Madrid, have knocked out English teams on a regular basis
Real Madrid or City in the final vs Napoli. Then Madrid or City win.
no one talking how akanji was just treating coleman like a rag doll...
Excellent analysis. Subbed.
2 massive mistakes by the Bayern center half. Let's not forget that.
So glad Bernardo is getting the credit he deserves

I'm so happy and thankful to the gods of football to be alive in the times of Pep Guardiola. He is an artist and his canvas is the football pitch.
Then people say Arsenal are leading the league because City are having an off season.
People are fuckin idiots, Arsenal deserved his top place.
To be honest, Arsenal are only leading because Pep was testing new strategies. Now everything is coming into place so Arsenal should be cautious. One more loss at the Etihad and they'll most likely lose the title.

Hardly an innovation imo. Pep is just copying what klopp did with early Liverpool. Gegenpressing with a slight tweak😂
For me real Madrid is again the favorite for the champion league
lol i might just subscribe here lol loved it
First city team which looks equipped to win the Champions League. Come on fella
In terms of balance and completeness yes. They lack something and edge in Europe coming up short. Defence was exposed a lot etc
Congrats!
Dont say he "Reinvented Man City To Win The Champions League" until they do win the UCL just in case you dony get bantered🤣
Pep mastermind or 'overthinker', make up your mind guys!
A lot like Madrid with Benzema
Reinvented😂😂😂😂😂

And sometimes thats what you need for big cup games..
why arent others doing it

Talk as much as you want, but you DO NOT want Real Madrid to reach final. That would be their 15th.
