    More of the same in this half it seems. City win an early corner and then find spaces around the box.

    Jack Grealish could have had a first-half hat-trick. Man City have 80% possession and it should out of sight.

    There is absolutely no way Jurgen Klopp is going to write a book about Divock Origi.

  10. 'Origi is a legend'published at 18:21 Greenwich Mean Time 4 December 2021

    FT: Wolves 0-1 Liverpool

    Liverpool

    Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "It’s great, [Divock Origi’s] a legend. He is a legend. People will write books about him, hopefully. If not then I’ll do it.

    "He's such a great player, a great guy. It’s a good moment, coming on and contributing like he did today, scoring that goal – outstanding. I’m really, really happy for him.

    "If you don’t take your chances, it happens pretty often were you go home with one point, or if they use one of their rare counter-attacks, you go home with nothing, which would have been incredibly unfair from our point of view, obviously.

    "This is now the right result, I think. We had the majority of the ball, we were very dominant, we didn’t let them play how they usually play. It was a football-playing side to not really be seen today because we were really at them.

    "So, good game with a great result. That’s it."

    Is this the same Watford that gave Chelsea such a hard match in mid-week? Looks like a two horse race for the title as City and the other lucky team look very strong.

    Hugely confident and accomplished display so far by Manchester City.

    Kingsley Coman has just put Bayern Munich 2-1 up at Borussia Dortmund before the break.

    That would put Bayern four points clear of Dortmund at the top.

    Alphonse: Jack Grealish has been Watford's best defender.

    Dan: "You can only beat what's in front of you". Well if someone can actually put something in front of City today that would be great.

    Guess who? There was Bernardo Silva from a tight angle to make it 2-0. City look like they could get five or six here this evening.
