Even though legions of football fanatics have their concerns with Manchester City, there's no denying that they are the absolute favorites heading into this season's UEFA Champions League.
If their dominance on the domestic soil is anything to take into account, they will be the most endorsed side to grab their hands on the silverware this season.
Furthermore, the return of Kevin De Bruyne to the side would only bolster the side's prowess moving upfront. Widely claimed as the easiest draw for any English team, the Citizens are bound to walk through their opponents in the group stages of the competition.
Since the side possesses such strong characters in the squad, Pep Guardiola's calculative vision could finally propel them to the top of the heap this season.
Significant additions in Rodri and Joao Cancelo are only a testament to City's drive to win the biggest competition in Europe and if there's a momentous time for them to do it, it is now.
