Guardiola says this City team can flourish Pep Guardiola believes his Manchester City team is not far from reaching our peak. Features The City fan who’s seen every League Cup final win! The City boss has seen his squad refreshed in recent seasons following a sustained period of huge success at the Etihad.
With several new signings and players from the Academy coming into the squad, a new-look City have a chance to win their first piece of silverware in the Carabao Cup on Sunday. Premier League leaders Arsenal stand in the way at Wembley at 16:30 (UK) and ahead of the final, Guardiola said he was happy with the development of the side. Men's Team City v Arsenal feels like the perfect final, says the BBC's John Murray “I have the feeling in many things we’re just underneath [our peak],” he said in his pre-match news conference.
“We will flourish, I have the feeling that it’s close. “Other things we need a little more time until the people realise what we need to be strong in many departments but in most things we are close. ” City head to the capital on the back of a frustrating result in the Champions League as we were eliminated by Spanish giants Real Madrid.
The Carabao Cup final is our first opportunity for silverware while we are also fighting Arsenal for the Premier League title as well as securing a place in the FA Cup quarter-finals. For Guardiola, battling for trophies underlines the strength and quality of his squad. Men's Team City’s Greatest City League Cup XI revealed!
