Manchester City Overcomes Watford Despite Midfield Challenges

Manchester City secured a 2-0 victory against Watford, marking their first match without Rodri since his knee injury. The win offered limited insights into how Pep Guardiola's squad will adapt, with a crucial game against Newcastle on the horizon.

19-year-old Nico O'Reilly made his competitive debut in Rodri's No. 6 role, showing promise but also facing a steep learning curve. City started strong, with Jérémy Doku scoring just five minutes in after a setup from Jack Grealish.

Matheus Nunes doubled the lead before halftime with a powerful strike from 20 yards. Despite dominating possession and creating chances, including near misses from Grealish and Savinho, City couldn’t extend their lead further.

The match concluded 2-0, leaving Guardiola with more questions as his team prepares for tougher opponents ahead.
