Spaniards look to warm up with win in murky Manchester

VILLARREAL flew into murky Manchester on their latest Champions League mission, declaring: “We are more frightened of the weather than United.”

Gloves and hats were the order of the day during training and with no immediate improvement in conditions expected, Manuel Pellegrini’s squad are unlikely to return home with tales of glorious British weather.
