Manchester City lost to Nottingham Forest, further complicating their position in the league table. Pep Guardiola's squad is at risk of missing out on the Champions League for the first time in many years.
Details: Former Manchester United defender and now football pundit Rio Ferdinand shared his thoughts on the possibility of Manchester City missing out on the continent's premier club competition. According to him, the Europa League is certainly not part of the 'Citizens'' plans.
Quote: "They don't even know the Europa League anthem. They won't understand where they've ended up. I don't think a club like Manchester City expects to participate in this tournament," Ferdinand is quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.
Reminder: In this season's Champions League, the reigning English champions have already concluded their campaign, having been eliminated by Real Madrid in the round of 16.
