Ajax coach Frank de Boer is targeting all three points at home to Premier League champions Manchester City in their crunch Champions League clash on Wednesday night.

Ajax go into the game on the back of a disappointing 3-3 draw with Heracles and City have not yet reproduced the form that powered them to the Premier League title last season. But De Boer added: "Manchester City are still at the top, with a lot of players who still play for their own national teams. "Take the four strikers together and they still cost more than the annual turnover here. "They have proved their qualities already and no matter who is playing for them they are always a tough team to play against. "It is always difficult to put your finger on why they are not performing as they are in the Premier League. "Everything can change suddenly but hopefully they are not going to hit that form here."
