Scholes On City As Champions League Contenders Thursday, 28th Aug 2014 12:44 Paul Scholes has spoke of his belief that City are leading contenders to win the Champions League this season. Scholes said City's 3-1 rout over Liverpool on Monday night is proof that they can win the Champions League. Speaking to The Independent in his weekly column he said 'Watching Manchester City on Monday night, the scale of the club’s ambitions was clear for anyone to see. They do not just want to be champions of England; this is a squad built to win the Champions League, too,' 'The most daunting aspect of it all was when Jovetic scored his second and the camera panned over to the bench.' Scholes who by his own admission is a die hard United fan also spoke of the mixture od qualities the City team posses. 'City were sensational at times against Liverpool. All good sides have a mixture of qualities and City have the guile of Samir Nasri and David Silva combined with the pace and power of Yaya Touré. Alongside Touré is Fernando, a variation on Fernandinho, whom I also like.' Photo: Action Images Please report offensive, libellous or inappropriate posts by using the links provided.
