LONDON (AP) – Although it’s taken a year longer than many expected, Manchester City is finally beginning to resemble a Pep Guardiola-coached team.
City maintained its rampant form as it ended Watford’s unbeaten start to the English Premier League with a resounding 6-0 victory at Vicarage Road on Saturday.
Guardiola’s side has scored 15 goals in three matches since the international break, with 5-0 and 4-0 wins over Liverpool and Feyernood respectively.
Sergio Aguero scored a predatory hat trick and laid on an assist for Gabriel Jesus, while Nicolas Otamendi headed in before Raheem Sterling added a late penalty.
The victory took City to the top of the table, but Manchester United can join it on Sunday with a win over Everton.
