Flores says players deserved more in defeat to Manchester City
After Manchester City sprang to life with two goals in the last eight minutes, ending 112 days without a Premier League away win, Watford were haunted by things that go jump in the night.

Both teams are out for a win, so they’re going to be giving everything they got to nab a victory.
But his team find themselves playing catch-up after a woeful away run that had seen them collect just three points from their previous six games on the road.
If Watford can contain Aguero then I think they are excellent value to earn a draw and while I am tempted to recommend an outright win bet on them, I think the draw is more likely and it’s only marginally shorter.
City’s best moments in the opening half centred on David Silva just after the half-hour mark when acrobatically attempted to score after Fernandinho’s shot had been saved by Heurelho Gomes.
According to BBC Sport, Manuel Pellegrini praised his team’s character in his post-match interview by saying his team “has a lot of character and they never give up”. It was enough to have some doubts, maybe – but then he became a completely different player. The turnaround was complete when Argentinian striker Sergio “Kun” Aguero guided a header into the back of the net from an awkward angle after a superb cross by Bacary Sagna.
Watford are also the least bruised side in the Premier League with only one injured player (Joel Ekstrund) ensuring they are bottom of the notorious injury football league… and even he is nearly fully recovered from his knee issue.
“We all trust him – he is one of the leaders of our team, but we must all be leaders on the pitch and step up when it matters”.
He said: “We have taken four points from four high-profile games either side of Christmas”. Before the goal, he made a lot of better movement than the last games. For him, the goal was important.
“We believe that and we want to make it happen”, he told Sky Sports.
“If we add those important individual performances I am sure we are going to be involved in the fight for the title”.
Do you think Man City will overtake Arsenal? “They have the possibility in two minutes to change the dynamic of the match”.
City finally came to their senses in the final 20 minutes, with Yaya Toure thumping home an equaliser before Aguero’s late victor – always the hallmark of potential champions – sparked delirious celebrations in the away end.

However, Yaya Toure struck an outrageous left footed volley into the top corner from Kolarov’s corner kick to level up the scores at 1-1 in the 82nd minute.
