Watford (H) Pre-Match Thread

Style is a long term thing, this game is all about needing the win (for lots of reasons) and therefore we need to make sure we play a team capable of fighting and scrapping and being dogged. Players like Nolito, Otamendi, maybe even Fernando (or Delph if can make a matchday squad), Zabba, all need to play, leave anyone soft out. Needs must
 
I'd go for:

Bravo
Sagna
Otamendi
Stones
Kolarov
Gundogan
Silva
De Bruyne
Nolito
Sterling
Iheanacho

Kolarov???
Cant be. Otherwise I agree. I prefer Willy to Bravo or Gunn but he wont change that

I'm no fan of Kolarov, but Clichy has actually been worse than him this season, which is saying something. Only other option would be to stick with three at the back (Sagna, Otamendi and Stones) and play Sane and Sterling as wing backs.

Title probably gone already. Top 4 will depend on how many points we can get over the next few weeks.Manure are looking a lot better but Spuds and the Dippers like us seem average
I expect at some stage this season we will go on another run,which if it happens will probably be too late to win anything, but it should secure top 4 and set us up for a better time next year.

Optimism is healthy
 
When Hart was off form Pellegrini left him out and rightly so. Bravo is clearly not good enough yet - his form is poor. Echoed by most. This game is surely one to play Caballero or Gunn. It wont happen but it should. It is also important that we start making our possession tell. 76% 4 down. It shows there is more to it than possession. Imagine how good Hart would have looked if he had played for Barca. If they were in trouble Messi would score a couple. The point is the keeper was less significant. In the Premier League even the bottom teams are decent. Not so in Spain.

Interesting you said leave anyone soft out, but said Otamendi needs to play.
