Milner says Man City good enough to win Champions League

Manchester City midfielder James Milner says they have the quality to win the Champions League this season.

City have been handed a tough European group with Bayern Munich, Roma and CSKA Moscow standing in their way of progress to the knock-out phase.

Asked about their chances, Milner said: "Yes, I think that a club like we are, and the players we have, that is the ultimate aim. When I first signed at the club, the Champions League was new to the club.

"It was new to us a team . . . I think having won the Premier League a couple of times, and been fortunate enough to win every trophy domestically, we now want to prove ourselves on the European stage.

"I believe we have a good enough team to do that."
