I should like to end today's festivities with the most festive moment of all, Kun Aguero's third goal today.
Start with this image, Kun approaching the ball, which has been passed to him, through the following sequence:
All eyes no on Kun. Watford are set up pretty well defensively, no? Six bees in front of him. Next.
Kun pushes the ball right of the bee keeper, it hits the far post and crosses the goal line. City's fifth goal of the game, Kun's third. Exquisite.

He splits the two up defenders.
And now approaches the Yellow Brick Wall of Vicarage Road.
Two bees are right on him and a third, part of the Wall, is kicking his leg out to stop any shenanigans.
Surely the bee-of-the-legs, his toe seemingly right on the ball, will dispossess the slippery little Argentinian of same. SURELY.
Surely not. And now the bee keeper in light blue is responding with alarm and alacrity. Aguero has streaked through and past three bees and rendered the wide bee in center irrelevant. But deary me, he's still got two bees right in his bonnet and the bee keeper racing to cut down the angle.
The shot is off Kun's foot and heading goalward.
