    "I believe with new players, Watford can be safe..."

    That sounds like one very telling comment on what he thought of the squad.

    Doesn't it mean with the already recruited new players ?

    I heard the comment and I am fairly certain that he was referring to the players who have already been signed.

    Tricky thing the English language. Just as a missing comma can completely change the meaning of a sentence, so can a missing definite article. Easy for me to say this I suppose, but being Italian, whose first language has at least four words for 'the', I would have thought he'd realise the importance of it.

    He might feel a bit miffed that he hasn't been given the chance to work with them more and fit these new guys into the team long term.

    Thought that JP's salmon like header had got him more time. But, that loss to Norwich sealed his fate.
