I would love to see us play Barcelona, Madrid, ac Milan in a competitive game.

Beats stoke, Blackburn and fulham!
 
1. Ability to recruit the top players
2. Worldwide audience leads to increase in fanbase and merchandise sales which increase revenue
3. Direct revenue
4. Prestige
5. Compliance with whatever stupid rules they come up with next about revenue and salaries and transfer fees
6. I want to see us play and beat the best of the best
 
FA Cup for me. The champions league should be still called the European Cup, and for the champions only. In its present format it's dull, group games tedious etc should be straight knockout
 
not in the slightest, i support manchester city because i want us to play in the spirit of the game, to try and win all cups, to field our strongest team at all times, to play with a freedom and adventure, old fashioned values maybe but there you go.

the champions league represents everything that is wrong in football, an extended fixture list with one intention, to make money.

i crave the old days of 3 euro competitions and straight knock out.

still when i am 80 i can tell the grandkids i watched city at 100's of stadiums, and the highlight was 2011 when we finished 4th and city got a cheque for 30 million, it enabled our multi millionaire footballers to earn even more money, and the chance for our club to up the ticket prices under the guise of, if you want to see the top players you must expect to pay for it.
