People give City deserved respect and make them favourite for the final but I think we've a huge chance of winning.
Last season, Klopp cracked Pep, now Tuchel is doing the same. Pep's approach, irrespective of players he put out is basically the same.
This is why we can win

First, I think, stylistically Chelsea are the worse team City can face.
- Solid defence
- Good possession
- Quick transition
- Fast forwards.
If you have this, you can hurt any Pep's team, even his classic Barca side.

Key to beating them is keeping and transiting the ball vertically. They defend with their forward press with 6 players. Once you are bold to keep the ball and break the first and second press, you will see gaps in both full back areas. And we have been very successful doing that.
One of the reasons why we dominated them and created more chances at the weekend was because we kept the ball better in the second half. We were bolder, calmer and more confident in that second half, and were able to see where the spaces were after breaking their press.
We have accumulated huge psychological advantage over the two games we played against them under Tuchel. I believe that will help us massively in the final. Now, we know what to do, it's all about keeping our cool and dropping a masterclass, and we are capable.
