    "..more likely to leave..."

    Perhaps we should start a poll on how many and who are most likely............ ;)

    Really can't see Smiffy coming back - now that MM has plundered all he can from us directly, he seems to be going after our ex-players now, so I suspect Smiffy may join H in the Welsh revolution.

    agreeing with this. I would guess at Forsyth, sadly, coz i think he could be good, and maybe Yeates, though Yeates has been used a fair amount. Could be Deeney too?

    Why is it taking so long to make a decision on Deeney?

    It may be that they're waiting to see when he will be released. It could be before the New Year.....

    Squad numbers have been announced

    http://www.watfordfc.com/news/article/120807-squad-numbers-296194.aspx

    Troy Deeney no. 9 so looks like he will keep his job? Or maybe we are still waiting to see what new forwards we can get in before making a decision, meaning TD is just a placeholder at the moment (same with CI and no. 10?).

    Very large squad at the moment, 35 numbers allocated!

    Personally I wouldn't read too much into that - we still hold his registration & maybe Zola wants the opportunity to assess him before a decision is made. From a business point of view, maybe discarding a £350K asset doesn't make sense to the Pozzos.

    Iwelumo has the No.10 shirt, and apparently he is free to leave... I guess most have just kept last years, while filling in a few holes with others

    Dont forget that we have to field a reserve side this season and there are at least 5 in that squad will prob spend the season in the reserves plus some academy players.
    thus the 35 man squad isnt massive .

    I seem to recollect reading Zola's thoughts on the squad size - something along the lines of 30 is too large and some would be moving on - either on the official site or in the Wobby, can't remember which.

    The squad will only decrease in numbers from now on in. Good that Zola has some choice though !

    Tonight's team looks really quite odd.

    WatfordFC XI v Gillingham: Bond; Hodson, Bennett, Thompson, Tumwa; Jenkins, Forsyth, Smith; Mingoia, Iwelumo, Vydra

    Matej Vydra heads #WatfordFC in front after 11 mins. Mingoia switched the ball to Forsyth and his cross picked out the striker

    Vydra scores his second in four mins as a 50-50 challenge sees the ball rebound off the striker and over the keeper. #WatfordFC 2-0 up
