FA Cup: Manchester City 6-0 Watford - 5 Talking Points

#3 Roberto Pereyra's costly miss at a crucial time for Hornets

Pereyra (far right) missed a great opportunity at 0-0 to give Watford the lead, which led to their downfall

It was an excellent stop by the outstretched Ederson but ultimately still a big chance squandered by Pereyra, who had a variety of goalscoring options and chose the wrong one. Had he dinked the ball or finessed it toward the far corner, Watford would've gone a goal up after 10 minutes and it's a completely different game.

Instead though, it's a moment he'll be repeatedly replaying over in his mind as his team were thumped by the league champions - ruthlessly punished for their mistakes and lack of a clinical touch when it mattered most.

In a real David vs Goliath clash, Watford knew if they wanted to spring an upset, they had to take their chances. They failed to convert those opportunities and despite creative flashes, this was another disappointing display by the Argentine which has rather typified his spell at Vicarage Road since a £10.4m move from Juventus three years ago.

His defensive capabilities have rightly come under question and in the build-up, he was at fault for at least one of City's second-half strikes. It was frustrating to watch and despite Watford's encouraging start, they didn't even manage a goal to show for their efforts. He hasn't scored a goal since Boxing Day and fell short of expectations once more when the pressure was at its peak. The word frustrating doesn't quite do it justice.
