Having a plan

I hear that City are vulnerable if you attack them, I heard the same about us and Liverpool under Sir Bob.
Mile Tyson said, when he was invicible " They all come with a plan, but then they get a punch in the mouth".
Plans are all very well, but ten minutes after kick off their winger skins your fullback and their centre forward nods it in, that's the punch in the mouth.
It's the players, if they are better than yours they tend to win, that's why an intelligent manager with a plan from, say, Exeter, isn't going to beat Arsenal in the cup very often no matter the plan.
City have the best squad of players in the league. Hence why they are top.

Also, you have to take your chances. Deeney had a very good chance at 0-0, and also at the end. Missed both.

--------

That's why Deeney plays for Watford and not for City/Liverpool etc.

He is a PL striker with a fair amount of goals.

Ah, only strikers who play for City and Liverpool should score great chances

exactly, there are plenty of strikers that can hit an open net to go around. against city you cannot sit back for ninety minutes and expect not to get scored on or score. city are the best but ive seen games this year where weaker teams could have got something if they just took their chances.

theres nothing wrong with the OP.

but what i can absolutely promise is that if you go negative city will hammer you.

if you TRY and attack they are pretty soft and will cough up a goal.

so its up to sides

0-5

or

1-5



seriously though if you give them 70% possession and sit back guess what happens

To put it another way, why isn't he playing for City, Liverpool etc?

Because they have other strikers.

Watford will never score a goal because their strikers don't play for Liverpool or City.

They have other strikers who are better.
And a better goalie, and full backs etc.
Watford will have one player at most who would get in either City or Liverpool teams.
So the plan has little chance of working, and very often they don't have the ball either, which can hinder you.
To be serious, I'm not saying tactics cannot make a difference, but I think just saying they should attack them isn't quite as easy as it seems, otherwise they would have been found out by now.
And yes if Pep had to miss four games, and they sat a dog where he sits, they would probably win at least three.

think the dog would probably have them where they are so far this year.
