We're coming for you, City! Barcelona jet in for Champions League showdown (See Pictures)

They're here. Barcelona have touched down in Manchester ahead of their Champions League showdown with City on Tuesday night - and they look like they mean business.

Lionel Messi and Gerard Pique stared down the cameraman as they walked through Manchester Airport en route to their team hotel and, a little later, training at the Etihad Stadium.

Earlier, Cesc Fabregas had supplied their 'we're on a plane' Instagram snap on Monday morning as Barcelona flew in for their Champions League showdown with Manchester City.

He posed with teammates Alex Song, Carles Puyol and Gerard Pique prior to take-off as the Spanish champions travelled to England for the hotly-anticipated last 16, first leg match at the Etihad.

Decked out in red tracksuit tops, the quartet looked relaxed and confident - and with good reason.
