Why exactly should Man City be the favorites against Barcelona??! Gimme one good reason!
City
- strong and tall players
- have a strong defence (well just kompany but he counts for 3 )
- have two strong and tall defensive mids
- fast winger named navas , try remember games vs seville then you'll understand.
- have aguero as a striker ( try remember how he performed against barca with atl madrid then you'll understand)
- they have a david silva (who keeps the ball well under pressure)
So they have a better team in terms of what makes a team successful. Good defence,mid and attack.
Barca on the other hand have a fabulous attack , probably the best in the world but on the other half its just a disaster , that's why city are more likely to win.
