Aguero will be back to his best in run-in – Pellegrini
Trailing 1-0 to Aleksandar Kolarov’s own goal, Yaya Toure volleyed home superbly in the 82nd minute and Sergio Aguero headed the victor moments later to wrap up a precious win that kept them three points behind the pacesetters.

First, Toure hooked a Kolarov corner into the top corner of the net to produce a brilliant equaliser, before Aguero found the bottom corner with a sumptuous header after Bakary Sagna’s inviting cross.
Craig Cathcart and Watford looked likely to secure all three points, until Yaya Toure and Sergio Aguero provided late sucker punches in quick succession.
It was a poor game on what was, overall, a ragged weekend in England as both teams looked like endurance runners begging for the finish line. The home side were on top for most of the game, were punished for two minor lapses in concentration and the late victor will add salt to the wounds as it’s reminiscent of the last minute goal which meant defeat for them last week against Spurs. “We want to go game by game”.
DF Miguel Britos, 8 – Probably the most reliable part of Watford’s back four at the moment, and who saw that coming? The concern is that they have scored only two goals in their last six away games in the league during their winless run.
Man City in the meantime come into the clash off the back of a 0-0 away at Leicester – and have continued to falter somewhat in front of goal on the road.
“The positive thing is that we are a very competitive team”, he told Watfordfc.com.
Nevertheless, it was a hard game for City with the pressure on following Arsenal’s win over Newcastle United earlier in the day coupled with a spirited effort from the Hornets. Today is a very sad, the players deserved more.
And that missed, coupled with a tactical gamble from Pellegrini, swung the game dramatically in City’s favour.
The powerful forwards have scored 20 league goals and assisted 7 this season as they have fired the Hornets to 8th in the table.
“Then we played against Manchester City like a small team trying to adapt to the league, trying to avoid kicks from the big teams and conceding a lot of goals”. His City team, rather inexplicably given their exceptional quality, continue to disappoint, and he will know they only won because of that quality, and not through any substitutions he made.
“We’re not afraid to hold the line and have players behind us offside because normally the referees make really good decisions”.

“We are thinking of going game by game but when you win a game like we did here there is a lot of trust in the team”.
