Manchester City will sorely miss Yaya Toure on Tuesday night according to Barcelona's Gerard Pique.
The Ivory Coast midfielder is out of the Champions League Round of 16 first leg at the Etihad Stadium due to suspension and Pique suggests his absence will be felt by the reigning English champions.
"He is a very, very important player for them," said the Blaugrana defender.
"When he plays and when he doesn't, there is a difference."
Toure is serving his third game of a three-match suspension which he received in the 2-1 loss to CSKA Moscow in the group stage in November.
