"The Champions League is the pinnacle of club football. Just ask Manchester United, who are having to watch from the outside this season.
But rather than approach Champions League fixtures with excitement and anticipation, the mood at Manchester City is one of apathy.
It is true that City cannot draw on the decades of European history that United and Liverpool possess, but that does not excuse the lack of atmosphere and passion, on and off the pitch at the Etihad.
Against Roma, there were 8,000 empty seats and while the stadium was full against CSKA thanks to a two-for-one ticket offer, the noise levels were on mute, save for the outbreak of anti-Uefa chanting and the booing of the Champions League anthem.
The sense of injustice towards Uefa, over FFP and the seeding system, has created a persecution complex which has become unhealthy.
There is no love for the Champions League at City, it almost feels like a burden, but the club must learn to embrace it rather than rail against the organisation that runs it. "
