Watford (A) - Post-Match Thread

Only slightly pissing off thing is that Liverpool took the three points right at the death. But from what I've heard and seen, they did pretty thoroughly deserve it.
We've now got two home games which are richly doable. Only problem is, so have dippers and Chelsea. Was going to ask, when do those two play each other, but I see it was the very first game of the season. Also checking, I see that they're both still in the league cup, which I'm more and more inclined to see as a good thing.
 
We are truly blessed to witness the way we play.

Great signs from Jack today - there will be big moments ahead for him and his link up play with Phil was a joy to behold. Also good that Kev was eased back and that Raheem is back to form - we need them all with the AFCON coming up.
In a weird way the abuse he received at Villa has maybe woke him up. No going back now. Time to kick on. Played well but should have scored at least 1 of those chances.
 
Great performances from everyone. Good to have Grealish, Foden and de Bruyne back, perhaps match sharp Grealish & Foden might have scored the chances they had - like Bernardo did - what a player.

As to Raheem - he scares defences to bits and that creates all sorts of opportunities for everyone else, and took his goal well - a month or so ago he might have missed that. Raheem is back - that means he will often frustrate - but he's our frustration and I love to see him in our team.
He does this even when he's not on the top of his game. He can squirm through a defence, they know he can and if it comes off once in three or four, we have players who can put away the chance. When he's on his game he terrifies a defence.
 
Great performance, top of the league!

But.. yet again I have to pick out the referee. Two absolutely ATROCIOUS decisions for clear red cards not given. Do players have to lose a leg for refs to act. It is ridiculous and disgusting that referees are not making correct decisions. I am sick of the standards of officiating.
 
I just can't help wondering — and I've thought this in the past, more than once — whether he doesn't express himself fully precisely because Kev is on the pitch.
Not that I’m comparing our team to England’s as we’re miles better but it’s a similar sort of thing that England had in the 2000s when Lampard and Gerrard were the two best midfielders but England always seemed to be better when either one of them played with Barry.
If Pep can crack this we’ll be unbeatable.
 
Not sure he was being entirely serious...
“Sad fucking life” - living in Somerset - of course I’m serious - HELP !!!
Glad Yeovil Town won in the FA Cup today on the BBC. Would love them to draw City in Third round. We have never ever ever played Yeovil in our long and illustrious history.
 
Bernado. Best in the world rn.

Sterling. Well done. Found some form.

KDB/foden/grealish. Great to see them back. KDB. Save him to be the main man in UCL when he's back up to speed.

We are the best team in the world up to the final third. We will find a suitable striker after which we will dominate the game for the next two years.

Off topic slightly when’s the 3rd round draw ?
 
I prefer Grealish playing in the central false 9 role...when he puts some chalk on those boots he will be our Messi ..Ballon D'or Winner.
