With the group stages set to begin, we assess Man City and other serious contenders for the trophy.
A rank outsider, but Atletico Madrid have made a habit of overperforming in Europe and springing countless surprises during the Diego Simeone era. They have won the Europe League in 2010, 2012 and 2018, and have been Champions League runners-up in 2014 and 2016 . It’s also a little over two years since they triumphed against the odds to win La Liga.
However, if it is to happen, Arsenal are the best-placed of the other three English sides. Newcastle’s lack of experience in the competition and subsequent low seeding means simply getting out of their group will be a challenge — they have been drawn alongside Dortmund, Milan and PSG. And while Man United’s draw is not as daunting , Erik ten Hag’s men just look too much of a mess in the Premier League at the moment to be considered legitimate contenders in Europe.
