Rodri has declared that Manchester City are at the top of their game and hungry to avenge their Champions League semi-final heartbreak against Real Madrid last season as excitement builds ahead of the first leg of the rematch.
It has felt for some time that it would be difficult to ignore the psychological aspect of what happened in the previous meeting; City held a two-goal lead in the 90th minute of the second leg at the Bernabéu only to concede twice and lose in extra time.
