(expired)City 13/8 To Penetrate Top Four Next Season

Manchester City’s new owners have declared that the club is aiming to challenge for honours on all fronts, prompting Sky Bet to open a book on when the Citizens will first finish in the top four of the Premier League. It’s 9/2 for them to do so this season, 13/8 for them to achieve a top four finish in 2009/10, 13/8 for the following season and 11/4 for the Blues not to penetrate the top four until 2011/12 or after.

Sky Bet make City 6/5 to finish 4th, 5th or 6th this term and it’s 9/1 for them to end the season in the top three (8/11 7th or worse). Mark Hughes’ men are just 4/1 to finish in the top three in 2009/10, 8/11 to be 4th, 5th or 6th and 7/4 to finish 7th or worse.

Man City have a chance to go top of the table on September 13 when they entertain Chelsea and Sky Bet make them 7/1 to do so. It’s 9/4 for the Citizens to top the table at any stage this season.

New signing Robinho has been installed at 66/1 for the golden boot, at 5/1 to be City’s top marksman and is 7/2 to score on his debut. The Brazilian is 5/2 to outscore Manchester United’s new star, Dimitar Berbatov (2/7), in the league this season. Berbatov is proving popular for top scoring honours and has already been cut from 14/1 to 10/1 after considerable support this morning. The Bulgarian is 8/13 to score more league goals than team mate, Wayne Rooney (6/5), this season.
