“I have watched a few [City] matches. They did not play bad‚ but I see opportunities to grow them.'

City officially start life under new Dutch coach Jan Olde Riekerink‚ who will sit on the bench for the first time‚ having had 16 days since their last fixture to get used to the former Ajax Amsterdam tactician’s methods.

But there is a chance for Olde Riekerink to come in with a new broom and take what is a highly skilled‚ yet underachieving‚ squad up the table. “I have trained so much abroad and it comes down to the fact that you have to win the game. It is not only about playing good football‚” Olde Riekerink said."This [squad] is a combination I think‚ between [young] talent and players who already have the skills.”

His reign starts officially at Celtic‚ where City have a win and two draws on their three previous visits‚ though the last of those became infamous when Phunya Sele Sele fans forced the abandonment of the game. It was awarded 3-0 in City’s favour.
