Match Thread | Man City vs Watford (21/09/19)

If they wanted to score as many as possible it would be 8 or 9 already.

After the 19 minute blitz they went straight into cruise control and I cant see that changing.

Maybe Jesus, Sterling or Cancelo coming on - players with a point to prove - will make them go for goals again, otherwise I think this will be 6 or 7 max.

I’m hoping for 8. We’ve done 7 before in the PL, it’s not impressive ;)

Although we've hit the post twice and Aguero's chip could have made it 8.

Mendy has been woeful. Angelino warming up

He has been out for 2 years give him a chance

You again. Shush.

Is it just me or does Mendy look a bit tentative, almost like he doesn’t want to risk injury again.

 

[TINY]

Yes. It must be because Mendy has been bad, and not because it's his first start back from injury and was never going to play more than an hour.

Precisely

 

[WallyA]

Angelino, Foden and Cancelo on please.

Or maybe just 2 and keep the 3rd in case of Injury.

That will change after he has played more games. It's only natural after 2 years out he would be tentative. One more bad injury and his career could be over.

 

[TINY]

You again. Shush.

No.

He's been Rusty. But he's never been a great cohesion player anyway. It's his overlap and crosses that are his strengths.
