Watford (A) Pre-Match Thread

[johnmcfcagain]

I would rest as many of our first team players as possible for this one and let them think on the Arsenal game. Then plsy our best 16 v Norwich given that we have 10 days to recover for Real.

 

[Gabriel]

Will be a good game for Mendy to practice his crossing to the other corner flag.

Will give Gundogan more game time to be on pitch but simultaneously look like he's not.

Will also give Jesus more time to work on his lack of a goal threat.

2-0 City.

Need to play Walker ahead of Cancelo, too...

 

[come-on-barney]

He saved Phil for this one

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

If the players don't want to play and put 100% commitment in, then let them stew about it.

Ederson, Cancelo, Harwood-Bellis, Garcia, Zinchenko, Doyle, Palmer, Foden, Bernardo, Braaf, Jesus (cos there's no other choice).

 

[citymad]

mendy will have a niggle so he’ll be out again...

Let’s hope so and he makes a quick recovery for his new club:)

 

[citymad]

He saved Phil for this one

You never know mate that might be true. Wouldn’t surprise me that he left one of our most in form attacking player to exploit Watford’s weaknesses:)

 

[simon23]

Would be nice if Cole Palmer Braaf or Doyle feature but we will go full strength and kids may. Not get match time even during this meaningless run in PL

braff has to get a chance at some point - He has something at lest different from Mahrez

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Play the kids, relegate Villa.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Sounds good.

Deeney, Holebas, Capoue, Hughes are all a bunch of hacking cnuts too. Keep KDB the fuck out of this one.

 

[hateutd]

Do we really care bout that match?... Now way.... We r league cup holders and second in the table,our best.... Now it's up to Pep to rebuild the team or ....

 

[chaddblue]

Absolutely meaningless. Fully expect to lose as Watford have got everything to play for and we've got nothing.... except avoiding injury and fatigue to players ahead of RM

Play every player who won't start against RM and then against Norwich have a quiet word to say no tackles allowed and we won't try too hard

 

[hobbsisablue]

Some right whingers on here tonight. FFS get a grip ......or get a life

 

[LongsightM13]

Play the kids, relegate Villa.

This all day long. Laugh all the way as the Freaky Blinders return to oblivion, gobby twats.
If the rabble we saw tonight can’t be arsed anymore then we might as well boil some opposition fans’ piss as well as our own

 

[ninjamonkey]

Couldn’t give less of a shit about this. Watch us turn up and play how we should have done tonight instead of seeing that dross. Watford need something and I expect they will get something, there’s nothing to gain from this fixture just get it done with and avoid injuries same with Norwich.

Pep to rebuild the team or what?

 

[The Black Shed]

Might stick a tenner on Watford you know.

 

[sir baconface]

Was hoping for a few fantasy league points from my City players on this one. Might sell a couple instead.

 

[blinkblue]

Maybe give Cancelo a game?

 

[Cobra]

I’d love to see something like

Ederson

Cancelo
Harwood-Bellis
Laporte
Anyone who isn’t Mendy or Zinchenko

Rodri
Doyle
Foden

Bernardo
Jesus
Sterling

Palmer and Delap on the bench for potential debuts. It might be too soon for Braaf if he’s only been training for a few days.

 

[Marvin]

Young players please, and maybe resurrect Bernado if he is interested.
