Agree mate.5-1 tonight. not quite sure whos going to score for us, nor am I convinced we will keep it down to just 5 conceded, but yeah; 5-1.
Obviously I'd take any kind of win tonight, but it'd be nice if the team made a real statement with their performance. We've been getting a lot of flak lately, much of it deserved, but a resounding victory would get confidence up going into the Christmas period.
Genuinely no idea what team, or indeed formation, he'll go for tonight though.
Yeah. Stop with all that management bollocks.I'm with you Ric, with just one proviso from Guardiola: Let the players get on with the game, stop calling them over and tell them to stop looking at you before they take a throw in, a corner or a free kicks (not that we get many free kicks and I'm not expecting any tonight with whoever the ref is) and let them just PLAY FOOTBALL using their OWN BRAIN!!!!!!!! (sorry to shout!)

Christmas shoppingDo the managing and coaching before the match, once they are on the pitch they should have the nous to know how to play football or why are we paying them hundreds of thousands of pounds?? They are so scared of doing something wrong and are looking toward the touchline so much they are missing balls!!

Wow.
Name me a successful manager that doesn't spend the majority of the game reacting to what's happening in real time?
Ferguson did, Mancini did, Conte, Klopp, even the toss bag Jose did.
But well done, a novel and original criticism of a manager on blue moon is a rare thing.
They'd probably play better tbf.they'll criticise him for turning up next, just because Mourinho gets himself banned so often he'll end up spending most games in the car park, and it'll be hailed as a "brilliant new managerial technique".
How could anyone be happy with 0-0 to Watford at home. Teams in a relegation scrap wouldn't be happy with that. No disrespect to Watford, but surely this is true.think the greatest disappointed with the shocking performance at Leicester was how disjointed we were and the very poor passing, giving the ball away and creating our own mistakes. I'd be happy with a 0-0 if it meant we had no schoolboy errors, but with Bravo and yet another change in the backline, its not going to be a 0-0

If we have doubts about beating Watford at home, then we should seriously rethink about our ability to be a top 4 side, let alone a title-winning one.
A win is all I'd be happy with. A win here gives us the opportunity to be back in second this time next week.With our home form, and recent performances from both us and Watford - I can see where he's coming from. For the past 10 league games Watford have had very similar results. 4 wins, 2 draws, 4 losses. We've lost 3 and draw 3. We need to make a statement tonight.
