MANCHESTER City were torn to shreds by a fired-up Everton side in the English Premier League last weekend. Today, they face a similar threat and it could well be the undoing of one Pep Guardiola.

The pre-season favourites are nowhere near as good as so many people expected them to be. Particularly after the arrival of Guardiola, whom some say City lined up three years prior to his coming to the Etihad in the off-season.
