Bassomylord Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Weren't they favourites for the league? No chance. God knows how many millions in talent yet they were so disjointed. £50 to every otib poster if their manager is there this time next season. Genuinly I thought they were really poor....a full strength side today I think blows them away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Manager is clearly a negative sort but their squad is one of the best & biggest by far. Bound to be in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 They've got a few missing including Hughes and Cleverley who would walk into most midfields in the division. Think they're still trying to figure out what their best team and system is. They'll be there or thereabouts at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsocks Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Watford think they have the Devine right to go straight back up.who does foster think he is to say they were the dominant side.they had a 40 million player who looked a bag of shit.they need a reality check.and as for grey up front I'm glad we didn't sign him all those years ago.

Given all their possession, Bents save apart, did they really get through us? Yes and No. I thought we defended fairly well, but contributed to our own problems by constantly losing the ball in dangerous areas. One example was Vyner's loose clearance to Quina that resulted in Bentley's excellent reaction save. Bar that ricket Zak had another good game and was our outstanding defender.

Funny how we see that said from every team we beat and draw against. Perhaps they did look better on the ball, moved it quicker, and as Tinman said on Robins tv, they had real quality and we had to remain committed and keep concentration levels high. We did that and perhaps deserved that point. I thought Watford looked better than Norwich from few weeks back, and perhaps best side we have played to date? Defending is an art as well. We did well.

A draw was a fair result. I Chances wise it was a funny game. Cathcart missed a really good chance, Semenyo has a couple of chances, Moore and Rowe too. As we know, possession counts for little. 1 hour ago, JonDolman said: They have some quality players. I don't get how Foster and their manager seem to think they were much better than us. They had 2 good chances all game and Bentley had one save to make! Under Holden I watch games where we don’t have tonnes of possession and still have my nails left. I feel less worried we are gonna concede. I liked how we finished the stronger team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malago Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 As I’ve posted before, Norwich and Bournemouth will canter to the auto spots. It’s four from about ten teams for the playoffs, although I expect Watford will be one of the four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve still some real quality to come back in to their squad . Agree, they have been very average, by their own admissions too, but have nicked a few points, bit like us, their changing the manager twice a season is a ridiculous situation and contributes to their lack of identity, in many ways a small club that has over achieved, but always seem to find a way.

In the first half in particular I was watching them playing the ball around in front of us, and I was thinking "their possession stats are going to look good but incredibly misleading". 7 hours ago, Sheltons Army said: The coaching team are doing their job and players responding - We look really well drilled and disciplined most of the time Ska Cardiff second half , each player constantly getting in shape was a joy to watch Saturday - watch a player - Id suggest one of midfield 3 probably , and follow them for 5 mins or so , rather than the ball , and the constant movement to regain shape or fill holes out of possession - interesting and a very good sign for me I wonder if that is easier for the players to do without a crowd? I despair at times when we are defending well like this and I hear the "**** 'em up, get into 'em" chant starts, because I worry the players feel they need to respond and lose their shape.

I’d take Sarr if Watford want to give him away and he’ll take a huge cut in wages!! Good players have quiet games sometimes especially when a team defends like we did last night.
