Pep Guardiola hasn't won a Champions League title without Messi in his team, Messi has won just one Champions League since Guardiola left Barcelona. Both want to win at least one more Champions League and Guardiola manages a team who want to win their first Champions League. For all of City's attacking brilliance they have only once had a player score 25+ times in a Premier League season (Sergio Aguero in 2014-15). Guardiola + Messi sounds good, goals + goals sounds very good, but you still need to stop the other team from scoring. Would Messi score more Premier League goals than the nine managed by Shevchenko?
