Manchester City are always a side no other team will love, hope or want to face due to their attacking qualities and squad quality overall.
They have been a dreadful team since Pep Guardiola took over at Etihad Stadium in 2016/2017 season, dominating England for the past three years, lifting the Premier League trophy back-to-back couple with league cups.
Manchester City are known to play beautiful and attacking football with quality and speedy attackers, like Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus, which sometimes makes their attack plays easy with their trickiness.
Its no news and fluke that the team at Pep Guardiola's disposal is as a result of the money he has pumped into his side, though his personal quality and managerial masterminds is massive and can not be written off.
Manager Pep Guardiola is a winner, and has done so in all of his previous clubs even with City, but where his luck seems to fail him at City is in European Competition, they have not come this close to carrying the Champions League, a competition they have always and virtually disintegrated teams, in group stages.
However, Manchester City have set a record in the Premier League, evidence of their goal scoring fluidity and prowess in the league, as they have and can boast of the best numbers of goals recorded each seasons since Pep Guardiola's reign.
City beat Watford at Vicarage Road with a scoreline of 4-0, a match Sterling took the game away from the home side before half-time, with a brace firing in a rising shot to open the scoring before doubling the advantage by following up his own saved penalty, awarded after Will Hughes committed a foul one the England international in the 18 yard box.
Phil Foden added a third after Ben Foster had parried a Sterling shot before Aymeric Laporte nodded in from Kevin de Bruyne's free-kick, meaning that Watford who are fighting for a survival for the top four do not stand a chance.
The first leg on Saturday, 21st September, 2019, featured Manchester City score a whooping eight, as Bernardo Silva got his first hat-trick as a Manchester City player, with David Silva, Kun Aguero, Riyad Mahrez, Otamendi and De Bryune all getting on the score sheet on that encounter.
City ran riot as they clinched their best and biggest league win for Pep Guardiola since he took charge, a match the Cityzens hit the woodwork twice.
In aggregate, from their first and second leg encounters respectively, Manchester City have scored 12 goals to nill against Watford, setting a Premier League record, a joint top-flight record for one team against another in a single season.
