Big-spending City look at home in Champions League

Even in their first season in the Champions League, Manchester City's quality and experience should ensure the big-spending English club feel right at home among Europe's finest this season.

City were placed in arguably the toughest group with four-time champion Bayern Munich, Spanish team Villarreal and Italian side Napoli in Group A, but few would be surprised if the club finishes in the top two and advances.

With a perfect four wins in the Premier League and boasting a squad crammed with top internationals, City could shake up the established order in its first season in Europe's elite competition since 1968.

City host Napoli on Wednesday, with Bayern visiting Villarreal.
