Man City defender Demichelis: Pellegrini has Euro know-how for success

Manchester City defender Martin Demichelis says they're capable of winning the Champions League.

City are through to the knockout stages of the competition for the first time and 32-year-old Argentinian Demichelis believes they can go a long way under Chilean tactician Pellegrini.

He said: "He is an expert in European competition. He can always find a way to win. He has a way of making sure his teams play in the free way he wants, that we play effective football and that we can challenge for important things.

"We are in a good place. The team are on a good path, we are gradually showing the style that the manager wants.

"It's clear that City have players who unsettle the opposition, players who in any moment, in any yard of space, in any action, can score a goal. It's a big worry for our opponents."
