Manchester City can learn from Barcelona's belief - Pep Guardiola

MIDDLESBROUGH -- Pep Guardiola believes his Manchester City players can learn from Barcelona's faith in their own ability after their remarkable comeback against Paris Saint-Germain.

The City boss has overhauled the side's tactics, urging his players to dominate possession and pass out from the back even when they are under heavy pressure from their opponents.

It's a system that his squad is getting used to with City now unbeaten in their last 11 games in all competitions following the 2-0 FA Cup quarterfinal victory over Middlesbrough on Saturday.

Guardiola says his team now need to learn to match Barca's belief following the Spanish giants' remarkable 6-1 victory over the French champions on Wednesday to progress in the Champions League 6-5 on aggregate.
