Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola, has admitted that he doesn’t know whether or not his side will win the UEFA Champions League this season, claiming it all depends on their performances.
Guardiola’s men are widely praised as one of the best teams in Europe, but Champions League glory, thus far, has eluded them.
The Premier League champions were tipped to go all the way last season, but a heroic comeback (6-5 aggregate win) from eventual winners Real Madrid eliminated them in the semi-final stage.
Man City will kick-start their Champions League campaign with a trip to Sevilla on Tuesday night.
Asked whether his team would finally win the Champions League this season, rolling his eyes, Guardiola replied at his pre-match press conference (via Daily Mail): “It depends on our performance. If it’s not good, then we will take punishment from the fans.
“I would love to have the story in Europe like Sevilla has. Man City is far away from what they have done in Europe. We are going to try again. Win it or not win it? F***, I don’t know.”
