PunditCan Anyone Actually Catch Mancunia? A Serious Question

Every pundit does — it is, quite literally, our business model. But belief and evidence are different departments. Mancunia have the best player in the country, a settled spine, and an owner who does not blink. The gap last year was not a fluke; it was a system working as designed. The honest answer is that someone catching them requires two things at once: Mancunia getting worse, and a rival getting a lot better. History says you usually get one, rarely both.
