I'm also thinking about the potential that Manchester City won't be the team to win the Champions League the next year because they've already lost Gundogan and are going to lose Bernardo Silva, who also wants to quit the team and join Barcelona. Even though it would be advantageous to acquire another player to fill their slot, it won't ensure success. I think it would be difficult for Manchester City to win the Champions League if the squad is not as strong as it was this season with Gundogan and Bernardo Silva still on the club.
That's right, this will be everyone's highlight. Various speculations have emerged stating whether Manchester City will be able to survive in the competition next season which will obviously be more prestigious without their flagship player. This is the concern of Manchester City fans. Several players have left Manchester City, I think one of the reasons for their departure is because they have achieved everything with Manchester City so they have gone to join other clubs in some leagues to gain new experiences. We can't blame anyone and neither can Guardiola fully restrain some players who decide to leave. What Guardiola can do now is find as good a candidate as possible who has the above-average quality to be able to balance the performance of the game in next season's competition.
The reason I said that is because the Champions League of the following season is going to be difficult because teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Arsenal, and Bayern Munich are teams that will make the league very difficult because these teams have signed many good players, and Real Madrid's squad is intact as well. However, if Real Madrid really tries to sign mbappe, the Champions League will be even more exciting.
For next season's Champions League, it is certain that several other elite clubs will give their best performance, especially Arsenal and Real Madrid, they have made massive maneuvers by bringing in some of the top players in the transfer market. Meanwhile, I hope Guardiola will be able to anticipate all possibilities that could threaten Manchester City in this season's competition, I hope they will be able to defend the title.
