Mick Dennis on Manchester City, Abu Dhabi and Sheikh Mansour | Football | Sport | Daily Express:



"THE chairman's suite at The Etihad is not particularly imposing. It's considerably smaller than the equivalent at The Emirates and the security is a lot less obvious than at Stamford Bridge.



But everything at Manchester City's inner sanctum is classy. The decor is understated. The food is nouvelle cuisine. The wine is decent. The welcome is unfailingly polite. Home dignitaries are gracious in victory or defeat even though they haven't had much practice at the latter.



If you don't get an Etihad directors' box ticket, don't fret. Outside the ground City have created the equivalent of a World Cup fanzone, with picnic tables, bars, cafes, giant screens showing Sky Sports News and an area for live music."
