Watford (H) Pre-Match Thread

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Just had heart failure. Thought that was Navas playing centre forward, at first glance ;-)

How clichy gets in the squad let alone the starting 11 is a fucking mystery to me

 

[blue corby]

Will he actually play 3 at the back or will zabba start in midfield?

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

It's about time Spanish Dave had a rest isn't it? Watford are probably going to try and mark him out of the game anyway tonight. He'd be better starting on the bench.

You just concentrate on how your Leeds darlings are getting on.

The bastards beat Reading last night. You don't get out much, do you? Parole conditions pretty strict, are they?

Just seen On BBC website deeney on bench and the young signing from dippers gets a start Sinclair, probably wanting a bit of pace up top the Watford manager think this young lad is quick as fuck..

 

[The slaughtered lamb]

Pep seems to have identified the 'guilty parties' for Saturday's result - Stones, Fernando and Iheanacho. And he's running with it.
Iheanacho especially should seem hard done wih this, whereas I guess you can argue Stones and Fernando as they had terrible games.

I don't think he's that vindictive mate. I'm sure he's picked what he feels is the best team to win the game. You could argue that leaving Stones out is part of the plan re managing his games. I expect Watford will employ Middlesbrough tactics; keep it tight as long as possible and try to hit us on the break. Hopefully we'll batter them as we need a confidence boost but the longer it stays 0-0 the more nervy we'll get.

She was saying he is doing too much and feels the players should do stuff on there own as well,i don't know if i agree as i can't see it all on the telly
No need for drama

She's talking complete wank is what she is doing.

Luckily we have quick as **** long lad, as well.

Like the team - we will get 3 points today.

No worries - we are going to get 2 in first half and safe 3 points.

In your opinion,leave her alone

55 changes so far this season,too many

 

[aguero93:20]

Thanks very much.

No bother, invoice in the post.

Yeah sterling,but it's interesting to see deeney dropping to bench not the quickest but strong and physical,Watford manager must have watched Chelsea and Leicester to bring this young lad in for an away game as well..

 

[PaulMoulden'sRecord]

I'm with Pep as regards Kolarov. He looks bad when he can't catch a quick striker one-on-one, but I'm not sure we have anyone significantly quicker and the rest of his defensive game is good.

I remember Gareth Barry getting massive stick when fast players ran past him a few times for City and England. Even though the rest of his game was mostly excellent (and he's still a key player for Everton, 3-4 years later), those few incidents seemed to be given an inordinate amount of weight when people were assessing his ability.

Sorry I stopped reading at the rest of his defensive play is good...

sadly we haven't got any better options. sigh.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

This is the last night of 4 weeks back-to-back Night shifts. I've had to follow the games on Blue Moon and the City website Matchday Centre with no radio feed. Torture :'-(

COME ON CITY!

Ignore me then.

She's saying that Pep shouldn't do his fucking job. I'm sorry but what a fucking idiotic thing to say. Couldn't give a fuck if she was a 20 year old bloke or 70 year old female. It's a fucking idiotic opinion.
