Match Thread | Watford vs Man City (04/12/21)

[Tugay One Cup]

And still the moaning goes on ..... We should have had 6 but they could have had two, and Grealish should have had 4 and Raz should have had 3 ..... and if my Dad had wheels he'd be a bicycle.

You can just tell these are people who were NOT fans from the "interesting" days of City. They would have self destructed long ago.

I wouldn't say that. There's a proper sense of entitlement with some of the older ones too.

Boring cunts.

Need a 3rd then we can get Silva, Rodri and gundog off during the 2nd half. Need to wrap those 3 in cotton wool.

And kisses!

Comfortable but I think Pep bollocks them at halftime, little bit too casual at times and that genuinely should be 5/6/7 by now. Grealish should (not could) have at least 4, his finishing and decision making has made sterling look like prime Aguero. If jesus is on the pitch instead we're at least double the scoreline.

Liking the corners actually missing the front man, looking dangerous from them for once. Danny Rose is a sorry excuse for a defender, need to single him out more you can walk past him. Goal difference needs a boost second half, we above anybody know how vital it could be.

Watford will up their pace in the second half, and not give us as much time on the ball. Just as Villa did. Just watch this happen.

Easy.

Want to see more of Foden though.

Lately he's playing more like he's happy to be a cog in a machine rather than standing out and being motm like Bernardo. He can reach Bernardo levels.

Great to see Sterling playing well. Down the right he plays much better.

I’m sure Jack will be furious with himself for missing a couple of those.
Hopefully he will get a goal tonight to settle him.

Jack has the raw materials to make it at City.
He just has to get up to our speed and by that I mean speed of thought. I didn’t think Rodri would get it in his first season but look at him now.
Grealish is not only rusty in front of goal he is also overplaying things and taking too much out of the ball. When he comes good imagine the speed our attack will achieve between himself, Jesus, Phil and Bernie.

Please sign a clinical striker. we could be so much better simply by added confidence to the team by a player who can play striker and can be clinical.

Do you think we will make a move in January ? Still think if we don’t get one it could cost us in the big games were not many chances up . We are miles ahead of every team in the league but no striker brings us level .

Half-time:
Watford, 18 attempted tackles, 5 fouls, 1 in 3.6
City, 12 attempted tackles, 2 fouls, 1 in 6.

Oh, how different a game plays out when the foul stats actually reflect what possession, dominance and the flow of game indicate should be happening.

A great half and we should be looking at double figures here. Watford for whatever reason are absolute dump when they play us. It’s like they’re beaten before they step on the pitch.

Only disappointment is our finishing, it’s almost unacceptable that a team this good, is so distinctly average in front of goal.
