Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez believes Manchester City cannot be considered a great side until they have consistently collected silverware.
The Latics host City at the DW Stadium tonight and, while Martinez says they are title favourites, he believes they still have some way to go to match the likes of Barcelona.
Martinez said: "As a team what measures you as a good or a bad team is achieving things and winning titles.
“What Manchester City has done has been phenomenal.
“I know money has been important but to get a team out of the individuals is where the difficulty lies.
"They can win any competition they go into and they have done a remarkable job, but only time will tell how good they can be. Barcelona probably five years ago were in a similar situation, showing good signs. "
But you can only be measured as a great side when you win titles and that's probably the exciting times ahead for Manchester City because they are showing they have everything in place to win trophies."
