    What happened to Kalu? Is he injured?

    I like that stat - Burnley haven't scored in the final ten minutes of a match this season.

    Hope it stays that way

    Possibly not up to speed yet...

    I was hoping to see Etobo on the bench at least

    Am not sure why that was free kick - three heads went for the ball at the same time...

    FT 0-0

    Not too bad a game really given the conditions. A bit of an improvement defensively - thought Cathcart stood out for us, which surprised me a little.

    Certainly looked better in defence, but difficult to come to many conclusions in those conditions.

    Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster: "It was a nervy game. The quality just wasn't there today as everybody was on tender hooks. The conditions were hard today. I can't feel my forehead! It won't live long in the memory I don't think."

    On keeping a clean sheet: "It's been a while! I think we've had about six managers in that time. It's always nice to keep a clean sheet we just need to find that bit of quality in front of goal."

    On Roy Hodgson: "I've worked with Roy Hodgson before and I'll take that all day long. Everyone knows their jobs. He gets you set-up and organised we just need that quality in front of goal.

    "We know we have quality in our team. The team spirit is there and the unity has always been there. We just didn't put those chances in the back of the net."

    Stats say we had more shots on target than them, more corners - and their keeper had more saves to make.
    Happy with that.
