Southampton v Watford. Javi Gracia's team travel to the south coast to face Mark Hughes's Saints. Southampton have only won once all season and have scored 7 goals in 11 games. The Hornets should be able to put more pressure on Mark Hugues. However, if Watford's last outing is anything to go by, they will have to be more clinical in front of goal to win. I believe that Capoue is suspended for the game and Deeney should be available for selection. Javi also needs to decide who is first choice left back too as hot head Holebas didn't take his chance against Newcastle. I don't expect to see the same line up as against Newcastle. More team news to follow. ¡¡Enjoy the game!! ¡¡COYH COYH COYH!!
please log in to view this image Simon Hooper will referee only the fourth Premier League game of his career when he takes charge of Watford’s trip to Southampton on Saturday. His previous outings have been spread out across the past three years, with his maiden top flight game coming on the opening day of the 2015/16 season. The Wiltshire based official has been the man in the middle for one Premier League game this season and didn’t show any cards in Newcastle United’s 2-0 loss to Leicester City in September. In 10 games so far this term, Hooper has shown 27 yellow cards and his sole red card led to Derrick Williams being dismissed for Blackburn in a Carabao Cup tie at Bournemouth.
He did give Leicester a penalty in that game and 2 in the league Cup tie... Another team out of form with a bad home record... Hope we can take advantage this time.
TEAM NEWS: https://www.watfordfc.com/teams/first-team/team-news-southampton-0 Deeney back in the squad, Cleverley back in training but won't make Southampton game. Capoue suspended. Gracia saying it could be NC, BW, or DQ could replace him.
lawro has us down to lose 2-0. He really is tiresome, even when he flukes results like last week. He calls us inconsidtent. 19 points form 11 games! At leasrt soton are consistent - uselessly so.
Well he has Newcastle and Cardiff down to win so maybe just bring boring and going for a load of home wins .
Foster, Holebas, Cathcart, Mariappa, Femenia, Chalobah, Hughes, Doucoure, Deulofeu, Success, Pereyra Subs: Gomes, Deeney, Masina, Gray, Wilmot, Kabasele, Okaka
McCarthy, Soares, Yoshida, Hoedt, Bertrand, Armstrong, Lemina, Hojbjerg, Redmond, Gabbiadini, Ings Subs: Gunn, Vestergaard, Stephens, Austin, Elyounoussi, Ward-Prowse, Obafemi
Saw some Soton fans yesterday Tweeting they were happy that Hoedt may be injured and won’t play. Looks like they haven’t got their wish!
Hello all, the team need to respond to last weeks fiasco and score some goals! Will post a stream if I find one Enjoy the game!
Someone on our board said he has not trained all week & Still gets picked . What has he got on MH . Anyway , just popped in . Neighbour is a Watford fan .
#1 . I have not been to a game for at least 3 years . #2 - Hughes was Deserved a chance after keeping us up . Time will tell , but I think ( and hope ) he will turn us around . If he does not , who wantwant to come in ? Hang onto one manager for too long ,( in the eyes of many ), get rid of one too soon ( in the eye of me and a few others ) . Club is in a mess . I will just say that anyone who thinks we are more than an average PL team ( Bumping around the mid - lower mid ) is not living in the real world and there are LOADS of teams like us . I am NOT saying there is any harm in dreaming , but one day we have to wake up . IF we get relegated ( Not saying we will ) There are no more ML's out there ! Or at least , probably not for the likes of us . Rant over
