Watford (A) - Post-Match Thread

In my mind Anyone, any Blue who is not happy with a 3-1 away win which takes us (back) to the top of the league must have a seriously sad fucking life and be in need of some heavy counselling.

Nice to have a ref with no ego who just ref’s the game on its merits.

Ye fair play he did very well.

Unbelievable only 3 teams have a positive goal difference at this stage of the season

4 innit?

But will Bernie get into Garth Crooks's Team of the Week?

Origi is a shoe in.

Well there's a turn-up for the book - 73% of the possession and we didn't have the lion's share of the fouls, which seems to be the normal thing. Watford 10 fouls to our 7, and three of them booked to our none. I think I'll email PiGMOL and ask for Ref Hooper next week.

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.

Top of the league, three points. Great goals from Bernie, Sterling getting his form back.

I do feel slightly frustrated at the amount of good chances we keep missing though. We really should have won by at least five tonight, at least.

Have you got any counsellors that you could recommend- I’m in Somerset.

Phenomenal football.

Controversial claim, but Bernie is currently playing at least as well as prime David. David was fantastic and his legacy is hard to surpass, but right now Bernie is a more complete player than David, for he can play any position from 6 to 11: he's more versatile than David, defensively more useful, and his work-rate is out of this world.

Pep should keep Bernie, Rodri and Cancelo fresh for the final months of the season. We can win everything if those 3 are in top form April and May.
