Why Man City cannot win Champions League trophy- Guardiola

By Bimbo Ogunnaike with agency report

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has said his may not win this years Champions League because they are not clinical in front of goal despite creating so many scoring chances in most matches.

It would be recalled that Guardiola’s side beat Crystal Place two goals to nothing over the weekend, the same goal margin in their last three encounters.

City boasted 72 per cent possession against Crystal Palace and registered 21 shots, with Guardiola not impressed by the fact they could only score twice.

“The people say about the Champions League, that target. We still are not ready.We create a lot, don’t concede, but can improve. We’ve scored a lot over the last two seasons and I don’t have doubts about that, but we have to keep going, work on that. We missed a lot of chances and also lost a lot of chances in the box [against Palace]. We have to be clinical,” Guardiola said.
