Ex-Wolves boss Solbakken: Man City will win league - they never stand still

Former Wolves boss Stale Solbakken believes Manchester City will win the Premier League this season.

Liverpool are currently top of the table.

But Copenhagen coach Solbakken told VG: "It's probably City and Liverpool that's number one and two in the end, but I think City is a clearer one than Liverpool is a clear two.

"Remember that City has played away against its closest rivals (2-0 victory against Arsenal, 0-0 against Liverpool, 1-0 win against Tottenham and 0-2 defeat against Chelsea).

"I think they build on the team all the time. (Pep) Guardiola is working on difficult things; the distances in the team, the defensive work and the ambitious attack game. They are so solid across all lines."
