    Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne was asked yesterday if he thinks this is the best team he has played in during his eight seasons at the club.

    It is fair to say he didn't think much to the question.

    "How can I compare the team from seven years ago with this team? How can I compare the season we got 100 points with one where we won four trophies?

    "In one way I've just been lucky to play with all of them. I just can't compare. It makes no sense."

    Anyone for AC Milan v Inter Milan in the quarters? It could happen if Inter get the job done in Portugal.

    The quarter-final draw takes place on Friday from 11:00 GMT in Nyon, Switzerland. It's an open draw at this stage which means teams from the same country could meet.

    Teams through so far are: Bayern Munich, Benfica, Chelsea, AC Milan.

    Man City boss Pep Guardiola on importance of winning the Champions League

    Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says he won't "pay any attention to what happened there" three weeks ago in Leipzig.

    The sides drew 1-1 in Germany with Riyad Mahrez giving City the lead in a dominant first half before Josko Gvardiol's headed equaliser.

    "We are going to adjust a few things to have more control and be better," said Guardiola.

    "They are so aggressive in the high pressing and have an incredible build-up from the keeper - eight players inside, two incredible wide full-backs.

    "You close inside and they go to the full-backs. When you defend outside they have more players inside. It's so difficult to control, you have to find the right tempo for pressing.

    "I admire a lot what Leipzig have done. When I was in Munich they were in the second division so I could not face them. I am a big fan of what they do."
