I HAD a spin in a time machine and went far into the future.
There were flying cars, teleporting had been invented and a cure for cancer had been found.
But there was still no sign of Brexit happening. And Liverpool still had not won the league.
The Reds won’t be winning a cup this weekend either as Chelsea and Manchester City are left to battle it out for the Carabao Cup at Wembley, tomorrow. On paper things aren’t looking good for the Blues.
Last time the teams met, City dished out a 6-0 hammering at the Etihad.
And dodgy form in the league has seen their manager Maurizio Sarri tipped for the axe.
In fact, I reckon there is more chance of jihadi teen Shamima Begum starring in the next series of Strictly than Sarri holding on to his job next season.
He had a bit of respite from fans’ abuse after Chelsea had a good win in the Europa League over Malmo to make it into the last 16 this week.
But they were dealt a big blow yesterday when they were banned from signing players in the next two transfer windows for breaching rules in relation to youth players.
It turns out they are as ruthless as Isis when it comes to recruiting under-18s.
I reckon Man City will pierce Chelsea’s defence like a Royal Air Force drone strike into Isis territory in the final. And if Chelsea lose badly I reckon Russian owner Roman Abramovic will get rid of sorry Sarri before the next Premier League game against Tottenham on Wednesday. BETTING: (Betfred) CITY 4-7 DRAW 7-2 CHELSEA – 5-2 CITY to win by 3 or more goals – (Skybet) – 7-2. SARRI to leave Chelsea before game with Tottenham on Feb 27 – (PADDY POWER) Evens IF laziness was an Olympic sport, I would come fourth to save walking up to the Podium. Don’t hang about and get a bet on the double on DOUBLE SHUFFLE in the 3.35pm 888Sport Handicap Chase at Kempton today – (Skybet) – 9-1
