Euro has been consistently showing this as a weak system being dragged by Sanba across Luzon, and their latest run shows it passing north of the capital, maybe as a weak depression.

If it pass just north of Manila, Manila will get another round of sea surges, since it will be exposed to the right semicircle ( if ever this develops in to something).
Now imagine this scenario, hope this would not happen(the worst case scenario), what if a storm intensify into a major typhoon in the West Philippine Sea/ South china Sea, then re-curve and direct hit Manila big time at the height of the southwest monsoon with matching high tide , the most likely result... storm surge will reverse the flow of Pasig river pushing it inward, torrential rain will also add significantly to the flooding, wind damage will be horrendous, the damage will surely be catastrophic just like Katrina did in New Orleans. even though the chance of this happening is relatively small, there is always that possibility , so never ever underestimate a storm that form in that area because it may suddenly become a killer...remember the invest pulled by Saola... its just an invest
