Match Thread: Cardiff City v Watford

We're getting thrashed. Unless Dyche has pulled out a surprise and is lining up 4-2-3-1 with Buaben in the middle.

 

So either we are playing 4-5-1 or we are going 4-4-2 with Bauben on the wing

 

ESPNs thread is here
and the BBC has one as well

 

Hornets player has just gone live.

I would like to see,

---------------------------------Loach----------------------------------------
Doyley---------------Tiny----------------------Nos---------------Dicko--------

---------------------Hogg---------------------Eustace-------------------------

Murray--------------------------Buaben-------------------------Assombalonga--

--------------------------------Deeney-----------------------------------------​

I think this gives us the edge in the center of the park. Buaben is not a winger but is attacking minded and this gives him license to get forward and help Troy. Britt is a good winger and played there a lot for Wealdstone. Also it minimises the chance to play hoofball, this means we have to play on the floor

 

Who's the co-commentator today Dan?

 

It is Ewan Roberts the former hornet i think. I will confirm it when i can.

There is no co-commentator im afraid. Ewan Roberts is commentating for BBC Wales, in Welsh!!

 

I would also like to see us line up like that Dan. But the chance of Dyche playing a 4-2-3-1 is very slim Id say.

 

No. I may do some more after Christmas but I have writen threads for three years and want a rest.

 

If Leeds V Derby ends tied, Ipswich find a way to beat Leicester and Middlesborough beat Hull then we will be up to 9th. Although a draw between Boro and Hull would be best for our playoff hopes.

 

Think its quite an innovative line up ,maybe with an eye to next season.

 

I hope not.

 

Hull are 5 points behind Middlesbrough...I think a Hull win would help us most....and of course 3 points for us !

 

Co-commentator was going to be Danny Graham

...but he pulled out

 

DAMN!!!! The co-commentator was going to be DANNY GRAHAM! There is someone joining Jon Marks but i missed the name. OOPS.

 

Co-commentator is Richard Walker - taking over from Danny Graham who couldn't make it.

 

Strange Watford had two Welsh language speakers Martin Allen and Iwan Roberts. If they played together that could confuse opponents.

 

We... ARE PLAYING 4-5-1

GET IN!!!
