Pep Guardiola believes there is no excuse for his Manchester City side not to be ready to take on Wolves on Saturday.

City have had just two full days to recover from Wednesday night’s Champions League meeting with Borussia Dortmund before tomorrow’s lunch time trip to Molineux.

“We have less time but it is what it is,” he said.

“The big teams have to adapt. The circumstances is what it is. We are no exception, it happened in the past.
