Club raises the banner of challenge in the face of Guardiola

Manchester City continue their journey to break points, victories and goals, even after beating the English Premier League last week.

On Sunday, Citi scored 90 points thanks to a clean five-pointer by Swansea City, leaving Manchester United behind with 16 points and third-placed Liverpool with 19 points.

However, Liverpool themselves were surprisingly well placed to reach the Champions League semi-finals, a move that Pep Guardiola's squad failed to achieve.

The completion of the Ridds has set the feet of German coach Juergen Klopp in the Anfield stronghold, and gave him a new push to continue his task of disturbing Man City, he told the British Mirror newspaper.

"If we had a regular season (unlike what happened) we would have been in a competitive position with them," he said.

"The top 6 teams were all special this season, but Man City was the best ever, so it's natural to be the strongest candidate for next season too, but will they do it?"

Mission Club

If Man City are to be a seasoned challenger for the next season, Clube will have to face an immediate challenge, especially on Tuesday when Liverpool play home against Roma in the Champions League semi-final.

It is worth mentioning that Roma was behind the biggest surprise of the season after beating the Spanish giants Barcelona, ​​who thought that within the qualification to win home at home 4-1, but the men of coach Eusebio de Francesco, achieved a 3-0 victory over Lionel Messi and his friends.

It will be a difficult task for the club to try to deny Liverpool and the attacking power of Mohammed Salah, the newly crowned Premier League player of the year, from reaching the final for the first time since 2007 and the eighth in his history.

In contrast, the club should not underestimate the intense enthusiasm that dominates Rome's players after Barcelona's elimination from the European competition. The team also sought to avenge what happened in 1984, when Liverpool himself dropped him in the penalty shootout in the Champions League final in the Italian capital.

Since then, this was the first time that Roma have once again reached the golden square of the Champions of Europe.
