On Tuesday and Wednesday, collectively known as the new Champions League season's Matchday 1, three of four English clubs lost their group stage openers. On Tuesday, Manchester City was beaten 2-1 and outplayed at home by Juventus, which overcame an own goal that perhaps should have been ruled out for Vincent Kompany's apparent foul on Giorgio Chiellini that induced that score. Obvious from the demonstration last season's Champions League runners-up gave was that, after all that investing and obsessing, the sky blue nouveaux riches still don't belong in the elite.
