Man City XI vs Wolves: Haaland BENCHED - Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest - Pep Guardiola drops out-of-form striker amid struggles in front of goal
Pep Guadiola explained Erling Haaland was left out of the Manchester City team to face Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday to enable him to mentally and physically reset.
Manchester City made light work of Wolves in the Premier League, but it was Wrexham that stole the spotlight.
This was Rob Edwards' 50th Premier League game as a manager (38 with Luton, 12 with Wolves), and his 32nd defeat (W7 D11). Only Mick McCarthy (38) and Daniel Farke (35) have ever lost more of their first 50 matches as a manager in the competition.
New signings could hold the key to a Premier League title challenge resurgence.
Pep Guardiola made some changes to Manchester City's XI and the result was a convincing 2-0 win over Wolves at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
Referee Farai Hallam stuck with his original decision to not call a handball and penalty for Manchester City. Was it the right call?
The ball would not stick up top, so every clearance came straight back. City regained possession in seconds and it became wave after wave of pressure. Wolves stayed fairly compact, but City's quality still told and, at 2-0 down, it already felt like too much.
