Watford (a) Pre Match Thread

Really think we need to rest fernandinho for Chelsea. He's going to be absolutely knackered.

Assuming zinchenko may not be fit, I'd give Danilo one more try on the left as he has played well this season when called upon.

Ederson
Walker--stones--laporte--danilo
--------------------delph
--------------silva--------silva
Mahrez---------jesus-----------sane

Not ideal making that many rotations but it means aguero, sterling, and dinho, go into chelsea with a week or more rest whilst walker, David, stones, and Delph all got a rest on sat.

Could always go gundogan as the deep lying midfielder as I liked him there against arsenal last season.

Tough, tough game. Were struggling right now, and conceding for fun. 1-1 would be a good result there.

Time you had a ban for all this wumming!

All we can do is keep winning. We’ve a tricky run of games Watford Chelsea Everton are not easy.

Aguero needs to start this game help us get a decent lead & then he can rest. Same with Fernandinho who simply has to start.

Sorry but I completely disagree. Fernandinho simply has to get a rest or he may burn out.

I know it means more games for the footballers, but I love midweek football.
Breaks up my week and gives me something to look forward to.
Watford have slumped recently and I'm expecting a win here. No doubt @malg will
disagree :))

*edit sorry missed his post further up. See he's hooked a few again.
That's some damn fine bait he uses.

Fairly confident about this one, our only real weakness is at left back. Not too bothered about the performance, after another lucky result for Liverpool all I care about is getting the three points and re-establishing a five point lead.

Liverpool have Burnley and Bournemouth away and United at home. Since, United raise the game against them, I think the fixtures are comparable. Just need to avoid giving that 2 point lead we have during this run.

Best team out please Pep, no rotation for this one. With not playing till late sat plenty of recovery time.

Plus 24 hours more time to recover than our opponents.

Every game is different but they didn't have a shot on target on Saturday , have lost their last four games and scored 1 goal in that time.
