The Dugout Discussion – Sunday

There are a pair of 4pm kick-offs for our Sunday afternoon assessment, as Everton host Manchester City, while Watford search for their first win against an out-of-sorts Southampton outfit.

The Toffees punished Saints’ new look defence last weekend, ranking joint-second for big chances (three) behind Stoke City (five). The Merseysiders placed fourth for home clean sheets (eight) in the previous campaign but face a tall task trying to pacify Man City’s effervescent attack, considering they put three past Chelsea’s experienced back line.

Saints boss Ronald Koeman will be looking for a big response from his players at Vicarage Road, having watched them ship five goals in their opening two league clashes. No side has conceded more goal attempts from set pieces (eight) than Southampton this season and it will be interesting to see if Quique Flores’ side can look to exploit that apparent weakness.

    In all the humdrum of how overpriced Sterling is, people forgot he is exactly what City needed. All the rest of their flank players are rubbish.
    ... Also lost in all the KDB pursuit, think they could have tried and got Pedro instead. Such an upgrade on Navas. Silva is doing fine as a no 10!

      Silva is pretty wasted out wide imo. He keeps coming inside so teams aren't stretched, plus you want him right in the thick of it. Navas may be pretty bad but at least he stays wide so there's more space in the middle. The width of him and Sterling have made a big difference so far this season.
