It would take a group of psychologists multiple doctorates, thousands of hours of peer review sessions and think tank big enough to fit Jack Grealish’s Brylcreem endorsement to figure out just what happens to Pep Guardiola when he’s 1/100 to get himself within touching distance of Champions League glory.

And the worst part is that it’s now become entirely predictable so he has no excuse for being blind to the fact. Pep, you’re now a meme and you’re not even tuned in enough to realise. Amazing.

Wolverhampton Wanderers are the new Crystal Palace, by the way.

They’re a team that start slowly so you presume by mid-April that they’re one or two points off relegation, only to realise that they’re in fact five points behind high-flying West Ham with a game in-hand.

They’re also liable to beat anyone on their day because they’re genuinely talented and can actually beat an opposing press with relative ease unlike so many other midtable sides.

And with Guardiola still being somewhat sheepish after the Madrid Miracle, will they catch them on the hop?

Absolutely not, because this is the Premier League and Senor Guardiola laughs at this competition. Much like we’ll be laughing all the way to the bank after this Bet Builder comes in.

Man City to Win

Haha, come on now.

For all that Man City have been undone in embarrassing fashion in Europe’s premier competition, they’ve been undone by Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea, Liverpool and Real Madrid.

Certainly not by a group of Portuguese try-agains that are from a suburb of Greater Birmingham.

It would take the ultimate Man City collapse for them to drop points here and given there are no other distractions as of right now, it seems inconceivable that they don’t out from here.

Raheem Sterling to Score Anytime

And old boss of mine used to start every Monday morning with the same old gimmick about Raheem Sterling not being a star.

He’d go on for a solid half an hour getting the same four laughs from the same four interns that would gladly be paid to giggle insincerely at those jokes all day.

Well this particular goes out to you, folks. I hope you’re all somewhere reading a Dummies Guide to Standup and watching highlight reels of England’s most potent goal threat ahead of the World Cup rip up world football again.

You can’t win them all.

Over 5.5 Goals

This seems ambitious? City are scoring at will against sides and they don’t need to rotate anymore – they’re sorted.

Very rarely do they partake in games that have much control given the majority of their possession is very quickly distributed from centre half to full back and then that half of the field doesn’t see any action for the next five-to-ten minutes.

Both Teams to Score

But that level of distribution is not quite there anymore now that they’re without Dias, Stones and Walker for the remainder.

All teams have to do is press Laporte with the ball and they’ll find success. The smart play is backing Wolves to net.
