Scott Sinclair is prepared to wait for his chance at Manchester City.
The 23-year-old says he was all too aware that there would be competition for places among Roberto Mancini's expensively assembled squad when he made the move from Swansea City.
"It was great that I started the game [in Dortmund] for my experience in the Champions League, but I'm disappointed we lost the game," Sinclair told the club's official website.
"It's always going to need patience. I'm playing in a great side and I've got to be patient.
"I've got to take every training session as it comes and when I get the chance I've got to prove myself."
