3. Manchester City’s midfield talent-
It is safe to say that no team in Europe, not even Barcelona posses as much solidity, skill, and talent in the midfield as Manchester City. For the first 45 minutes against Watford, City’s midfield was unusually quiet but they showed their class in the second half with more creativity and the gifted ability to stretch the defensive line of the opposition.
David Silva continues to defy age as he somehow found some space to make a wonderful defense-splitting pass to Sterling. Gundogan made no mistakes in his defensive duties and was at his usual best while passing the ball. Bernardo Silva was once again the show stealer as he was everywhere on the pitch and his pace while moving forward troubled the Watford defence. Even without players as good as Fernandinho and Kevin De Bruyne, Manchester City’s midfield look assured and flawless and Pep Guardiola will be very pleased with this performance.
