Manchester City first-team coach David Platt says the club's unbeaten record counts for nothing unless the Premier League champions are winning.
Banned
Platt landed himself in trouble last week when he was sent to the stands during City's UEFA Champions League clash with Real Madrid at the Etihad Stadium.
He is now banned from the touchline for next week's final Group D game at Borussia Dortmund, a match from which the best City can do is secure a consolation place in the Europa League.
Platt said: "It's a mistake of mine. I grumbled about the referee to the fourth official.
"Letter of the law says you can't do that, and I accept the responsibility and the decision."
