Manchester teams suffered quite the disgrace in failing to move into the final round of 16 in the
Champions League. Manchester City, despite an obscenely rich owner, will now have to look to the
Europa League for some hardware.

the past seventeen seasons with a 2-1 away loss at FC Basel on Wednesday. Needing a draw to advance
to the Round of 16, United opened the match on the attack but were soon down 1-0 after Marco [...]

The England international completed the move on transfer deadline day to end a summer of

The 29-year-old had failed to establish himself at Anfield since arriving on a free transfer last
summer and had fallen well down manager Kenny Dalglish's pecking order.
