Match Day Thread Watford vs Southampton Saturday 30th August 15:00

Matchday

Buzzing for this. Can't beat a relatively local away day for a Saturday 3pm.

Though I've ****ed up my travel and think I'm going to arrive in London about 10:30.

Any suggestions on what to do to kill a few hours?

Depends what your vibe is! You can either get to Watford early and hit a couple of pubs/bars/cinema/shopping or get out at Waterloo and spend some time around South Bank. Usually a food market there, great walks down the Thames etc, London eye if you’re feeling touristy.

For a change

3rd of 4 so far this season

Azaz is in squad and Armstrong fit as well.

Shame Robinson has dropped out, but pleased to see Azaz start

 

[Libby]

Pretty happy with that. Azaz to assist Archer for the winner.

 

[Libby]

Strong bench which is nice

Archer just feels like a striker who needs to play off a big man. Hopefully he proves me wrong here.

Will be hard to expect them to all be on the same wavelength, but then we’ve hardly been seamless this season. I guess it’s kind of a 3-4-2-1

That's my only slight worry. But maybe Azaz will be able to find his feet in and around the box which might help.

Change in the team, Robinson in for Downes who pulls out of squad due to illness. Hopefully not food poisoning again!

 

[SteveO 74]

What is it with our players getting sick after the line up has been announced?

 

[Libby]

One DM

4-1 Saints

Yeah, that is just weird.

 

[Saints_Alive]

Yep if there is to be 3 CBs then ditch one of the DMs.

Have Ipswich been on the phone to him?

 

[SteveO 74]

May be a change of formation now.?

 

[thereisonlyoneno7]

Insurance bet placed.

Snap

Ah yes the christmas tree formation.

 

[SaintElliot]

We'll need a player to drop near Charles though or we will be overrun through the middle. Fraser maybe?
