Watford (A) - Post-Match Thread

We did what we needed to do, against a determined Watford. Sterling is creeping back to form, Gundog & Silva bossed the game & it was great to see Grealish, Foden & KDB back & looking sharp, just in time for the man-killer festive season programme.

We just need to be more clinical in front of goal. Having said that, what we've lost in goal scoring prowess, we've gained in defensive solidarity. If we could combine our goal scoring of 3 seasons ago, with our current defensive solidarity & our possession, we'd be the best football team in the world right now.

As it stands, I honestly believe we're a clinical striker away from that.

I think we are the best team in the world right now.

A truly world class striker would help us cement that position.
 
At least some Watford fans appreciate our magnificence.

I'm really not sure why I didn't try to get tickets to the game yesterday. I have bought tickets in the home section near the away fans on last two occasions fans were in attendance and I do recall listening to some of their supporters eulogising over David Silva.
 
Pep very deliberately chose to make the point about our tough run of away fixtures in the first half of the season in his post match interviews yesterday.
Yet virtually all the media still chose to totally ignore it.
Seems that in their desperation to talk up ‘the best title race for years’ - which would make them lots more money in ad click revenue - they are desperately trying not to acknowledge the elephant in the room, namely that we could be once again ready to break the back of the season in December and January and absolutely spreadeagle the rest of the league
Lot of parallels to last season - sketchy start due to no pre-season with our annual loss away at Spurs. Wank-fest over Scousers and Scum. As we get up to speed, we start picking things up and a run develops (5 PL wins in a row and counting). Questions about no striker and where the goals will come from but a midfielder steps up and starts popping them in.

I’m still not over that loss to Spurs. How? Just How?
