Watford fan here. Firstly, congratulations on winning the league. I'm not going to blow smoke up your arse but you stopped Liverpool winning the league which made a lot of people happy.
Few things I've seen posted on here. Holebas, who was wrongly sent off on Saturday, is really not that dirty as a player, most of his bookings are for dissent as he is one grumpy bugger! Nobody seems to like Deeney so having a pop at him is fairly pointless. He has been much better for us this season but he wears his heart on his sleeve which occasionally annoys the opposition. Blimey, you had Dickov who was one of the most unpleasant players I've ever come across!
Delefeou at times is absolutely brilliant but can be very lazy. For us to have a chance he will need to start and play well
It is very likely that Gomes will play in goal. I don't get it as Foster has been excellent for us and it does feel as if we're only playing him because he leaves at the end of the season
We have about 5% chance of winning this. You need to play poorly, we need to play very well, we need some luck, Gomes needs to have a blinder and I need to drink enough before the game so that if we do get horribly stuffed I won't remember it
Tube strike has been cancelled apparently if that's how you were getting to the game

All the best fella, enjoy the game but not too much :)

Great news about the tube if your info is correct.
 
Good news about the tube thanks. Have you guys sold all your tickets.

I'm expecting a few changes
Ederson
Danilo Stones LaPorte Zinchenko
Bernardo Gundagan Debruyne
Sterling Jesus Sane
 
Not much point even turning up. The Gilluminati will take the trophy off us (if we win it) once UEFA, FIFA, The PL and The FA ban us from every competition going and replace all of our recent victories with asterisks.

Haha they'll be quite right in calling us Harlem Globetrotters the way they're going.

I kind of think you're correct. Not the answer I was looking for, but we'll survive. C'mon City.

Yes, it's only on ESPN+ as far as I can tell (although one of the Spanish speaking channels might pick it up). However, they have a 7-day free trial, so you can sign up, watch the game, then bin it later. I've been paying for it since January (they had the Carabao Cup as well) and waiting to cancel once City got knocked out by Wigan. It's only $5 a month though, and there are quite a lot of other games on (Internationals and MLS), so I might just keep it even after Saturday.
