Watford (H) | Post-Match Thread

[kevreeves]

what do some of you see in Cancelo...? The guy is absolute dog sh yte..he really is..Anyway we got a penalty after 11 seconds..They kicked off after it in the 50th minute after the communication debacle..yellow cards aplenty and two stoppages (annoyingly) for so called injuries and so many substitutions and we get 3 minutes added time.What a joke...Although i have to say it was the most boring last 20 minutes and 3 minutes was probably doing us a favour..

Footballs just not your game is it? He wasn't at his best today admittedly but if you think he's that bad you obviously don't watch much of the beautiful game!

Cancelo is decent. However not a defender. He give us much more than grealish

Seriously today was probably the first time I properly questioned whether Grealish will ever be good enough for us. Watford were absolutely dreadful but I'm struggling to think of a single positive contribution. It's all about next season with him now I guess.

Said it previously that Cancelo is better at LB than RB

Thought Zinchenko did himself and his country proud today at LB though

Zinchenko my MOTM today (unfair on Gabby as that is), he was the first to get going today and didn’t put a foot wrong all match. Lovely moment at the end when he gave his shirt to a young City fan with a Ukraine flag and gave him a big hug. Mind you the ground was three quarters empty by then. He is a credit to himself, his country and to us

Only 18 pages instead of 98, we must have won comfortably :)

What a difference a early goal does for the nerves.
Pressure what Pressure CTID

Why the long wait on the var decision for the penalty.
Scandalous.

What were they even looking at?

Well played City. Knew Jesus would come good but he had great service too. Zinchenko, Rodri, Kdb and Fernandhino all very very good. Sterling also played really well. Running forwards with the ball and attacking space is what makes me love City. In fact we look most comfortable when we attack. Going backwards is not in City's dna......any more.

Think the Rags have cornered the "going backwards" market

How did Jesus only Get an 8 in the sky ratings??

Because he doesn’t wear a red shirt

I watched the highlights on the way out and thought the pen was a total stoner. Why did VAR take so long to confirm. Our VAR checks when we are in benefit take two minutes, when theres a sniff of it being disallowed it takes seconds!

And what was that conflab about with Kevin in our techy area, and who was that guy who was doing most of the gesticulating?

I texted my ERO that it was 54 mins, 5-1 and Jesus had scored four, and we had 40mins of no more goals. Hope the title isn't decided on GD. Should have been eight or ten!

Clear as day why Watford are in the position they are!
