Manchester City are back to winning ways and the breezy, emphatic nature of the defeat of Watford suggests the ending of their record 18-game winning sequence on New Year’s Eve has merely refreshed Pep Guardiola’s side and made them doubly determined to resume their love of steamrollering opposition.

City required only 38 seconds to take the lead. Fabian Delph threaded the ball to David Silva along the left. He recycled it to Leroy Sané who beat http://www.authenticdevilsstore.com/-19-travis-zajac-jersey_c-461.html Daryl Janmaat for pace and crossed. Marvin Zeegelaar missed the ball and Raheem Sterling struck with a confident left-foot finish that made his total 18 for the season.

City could have doubled the advantage a few minutes later. This time Delph fed Sané, who picked out John Stones in an acre of space in front of Heurelho Gomes’s goal. But what should have been an easy second was spurned, the centre-back spooning over the bar.

Guardiola had made five changes from the draw at Crystal Palace. Sergio Agüero, Stones, Sterling, Delph and David Silva came in but the headline selection was a player who retained his place; Kevin De Bruyne’s presence having been in doubt after a heavy Jason Puncheon challenge at Selhurst Park.

Guardiola said: “He had some pain but wanted to play, if he wants to play then I want him to play. It says a lot [about his character].”

Marco Silva drafted in Étienne Capoue and Andre Gray, Watford’s manager hoping his side could repeat Palace’s feat and become only the third side this season to deny City a league win. Yet going behind so early made the ask all the harder. Sané was floating in behind Watford’s defence at will. On one occasion he rolled the ball into the danger area but it was not precise enough for Agüero to take aim.

City then attacked down the right for the first time and they promptly scored. Silva – again – was the conductor, releasing De Bruyne, and Dario Saric Jersey when the Belgian whacked the ball in it ricocheted off a hapless Christian Kabasele past Gomes.

The temptation was to consider the contest over after only 13 minutes. When De Bruyne crashed a free-kick off the bar a few Rasmus Andersson Womens Jersey minutes later – Gomes may have got a touch – it underlined City’s domination.

A sodden Silva stood in the technical area wondering how Watford might claw their way back into the game. Guardiola, usually a fixture in the zone, signalled his content by not entering it until the 22nd minute. Yet after Earl Mitchell Womens Jersey Stones hit a high ball intended for Sané straight out, Guardiola returned to his seat slapping a thigh in disappointment before Gray came close to pulling one back. A Nicolás Otamendi slip allowed the centre-forward to race at Ederson, who protected his team’s lead with a fine save.

Towards the end of the half Sané and Agüero, twice, http://www.mavericksteamonline.com/Harrison_Barnes_Jersey nearly breached the Watford rearguard and the visitors will have been relieved to reach the break only two goals down. Guardiola, though, may have http://www.officialauthenticcowboysstore.com/Nike-Anthony-Hitchens-... been frustrated for such dominance not to have already Chris Owings Authentic Jersey sealed victory.
