And the former Italy striker has his eye on his eie treble.
He says: “I like having the nickname King of the Cups.
“I’ve always had strong teams at Lazio and Inter and in the decisive finals we have always attacked and defended well. We will do the same against City.
“Pep Guardiola is the best coach in the world and I will always say that but we have no fear, even though we respect City a lot.”
And he reckons City’s obsession with winning a first European Cup could weigh them down.
He adds: “City have been chasing the Champions League title for many years. Does that give us a psychological edge? We will see.”
