Match Thread | Man City vs. Watford (24/09/24)

[Gabriel]

If Guardiola had any intention of using Nunes in the Rodri role, he’d surely have used him in there tonight. Looks like it’ll be Kovacic/Gundogan/Bernardo in there. Good half from a makeshift side.

Negativity from the daily fail online.

Atmosphere flat as a pancake.

Watford goal should have stood blah blah blah

Nico is still rough around the edges but if he puts it together under Pep's utelege... Massive!

Yep. He's like a first year apprentice learning on the job. Once he works it out, he's going to be a very good player.

surprised to still see so many of Grealish's shots and passes blocked by the first defender even against lower division opposition. Frustrating.

Poor defending there, but no harm done.

We were blessed really.
Too easy to put the cross in and Walker no where near stopping the header.

All in all though, good half. Apart from the disallowed goal they didn’t trouble our goal at all.
Kids are nervous of making mistakes but are doing really well. Delighted for Nunes.
He has it in him. Just needs the confidence to make the correct simple decisions rather than trying to overdo it at times.
Great boost for the confidence.

I had heard it was toxic in the match day thread now I believe it.
Ime off

Yeah and maybe John Stones, but not looking good for Nunes, I think he is playing well considering he hasn't played much football. I think he's a decent player, just maybe Pep doesn't trust him

What’s that smell? It is sheep, is it cows … ?

Think Nunes doesn't appreciate Kyle stretching his lips - there's a time and place skipper.....

Nunes goal 2 - 0

Nice goal that, thanks
