Manchester City are the latest Premier League club to be hit with travel disruption for an away trip in the Champions League.<\/p>\n

Manchester United, meanwhile, also arrived late to their opening game, a 4-3 defeat by Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena.<\/p>\n
Guardiola revealed last week that City’s journey back from a Carabao Cup clash at Newcastle was to be taken by coach rather than a plane, which he claimed ate into their recovery time before losing against Wolves three days later.<\/p>\n
