Arsenal legend Wright: Man City better equipped than Man Utd to beat Barcelona

Arsenal legend Ian Wright feels Manchester City are better equipped to beat European champs Barcelona than Manchester United.

Wright wrote in The Sun: "As Europe's elite clubs prepare to do battle once more, I reckon Manchester finally has a squad of players capable of toppling the mighty Barcelona.

"Sadly for Alex Ferguson and every United fan, they play in blue, not red.

"Yes, I fancy Manchester City to go far on their first Champions League adventure.

"Unfortunately for them, I believe United will probably end up going a little bit further.

"But there is no doubt Roberto Mancini's men have what it takes to make a massive impact among the cream of the continent.

"City may not have played in this tournament before, but they have a manager and plenty of players who have."
