Watford (H) Pre-Match Thread

[Benarbia]

to be fair he has no other options unless he plays one of the kids or more and Id bet Pep is managing the expectations not he kids and he probably feels that it would nt be right to put them in when the main team isn't performing very well either

I'd have Tosin over Kolarov

Surely kev has to be central and Merlin left side? Look at the difference it made against barca when Kev went central!?!!

i swear there is some psychology playing players out of position, like when trainers run horses over the wrong distance, when they are finally allowed to run over the distance they are best at - bang, everything comes together. ie: champs league.

yeah i get that as I probably would as well but its probably not the right time to put him in when the team (and Pep) are under real pressure.....

looks like the formation from earleir in the season. Depends whether yaya is playing deep wiht Gundo or further up. Interesting selection, I'm quite happy with it. Glad Nolito is playing.
Personnaly I'd play a false nine (silva or KEv) with Nolito left and sterling right

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

should have been stones instead of kolarov. maffeo at right back.

Not impressed but we'll see......

Out of curiosity, what team would have suited you

He has Stones on the bench and plays slow coach, bone idle Kolarov, that's an option.

Good having 4 at the back.
Just a pity they're not a very good 4.

If we lose or even draw this we really do need quality additions in January.

Despite what the media would have everyone believe our squad depth is actually piss weak.

Who said its 4 at the back???

 

[deano ou812]

Seems going by the line-up,its shit or bust all attack minded with no real defensive minded midfielders,going to be an interesting game for sure..

 

[shemnel]

i wanted Nolito and Ya Ya so im happy enough with the lineup but we are badly exposed for the defensive players we havent got

One in red probably.
