'It is weird' - Guardiola shocked by eight-goal Watford rout
It was a joy for the manager, Pep Guardiola, to behold as his side, Manchester City shone brightly like a shooting star against the Hornets, demolishing them into ruins. They were simply fierce and ruthless.
Manchester City's flying start in their 8-0 demolition of Watford was "weird" and "not normal", according to Pep Guardiola.
Within eighteen minutes, the City boss watched his side score five awesome goals courtesy of David Silva, Sergio Aguero, Riyad Mahrez, Bernardo Silva and Nicholas Otamendi-the quickest in Premier League history.
It was a dramatic arrangement by Bernardo Silva that set the pace for Kevin De Bruyne to score, giving City the greatest top flight win.
"It is weird, it is not normal," Guardiola said. "Five shots, five goals. In the same time, we gave them two chances to score.
Guardiola was very happy because his players continued to show the application to principles given to them throughout the contest.
I'm flabbergasted myself. How did it happen?
Wow! This one is simple senseless. Did they prepare at all for this?, I mean Watford.
