Loving those stats, but as this league can turf out some seriously unpredictable scores, i am certainly not going to be putting us on as a banker. Come on you horns, put us in 2nd spot come tonight.
Not quite cats and dogs falking from the sky but it's the sort of afternoon you want to close the curtains and drink tea in front of an open fire I hope they make an early call on this game
Falking?? Is that a cross between falling and barking? And, if so, do cats do it too, or do they meowl?
Big game tonight, as Hampshire mentioned, in testing conditions. Against a lowly team with a recent win under their belt. Would be a big show of intent tonight IF we get a good win. COYH
#watfordfc start XI v City: Almunia; Nosworthy, Hall, Ekstrand; Murray, Abdi, Eustace (c), Hogg, Pudil; Forestieri, Geijo.
Almunia; Nosworthy, Hall, Ekstrand; Murray, Abdi, Eustace (c), Hogg, Pudil; Forestieri, Geijo 6 changes then...hopefully the changes won't affect us as they did against Charlton..the defence is stronger this time with Hall and Nosworthy in it. Another chance for Murray. Risky though...Bristol City will tihnk we're being complacent and go for us to prove a point.
Big shake up then, breaking up a winning team.... Murray in from the cold too. I'd love to be up in second by the end of play.
First reaction - wtf, no Deeney or Vydra! But upon reflection, FF & Geijo ain't too bad a front pairing. Five of the best on the bench - how many other teams in this division would do that?
I knothe best vibe for me either. However, we need use all of our squad it is a long season. We look strong on paper though. Need to top two to have a good game and FF to cut out any antics.
Have an extra reason for wanting us to win - I don't want to send a text to pie telling him we've lost on his 17th birthday.
It looks like a defensive line up with Eustace, Hogg, NN and Fitz Hall. Not sure that the mid-field looks that creative.
Zola is a better manager than I will ever be. But Murray sounded way off the pace on his last outing. And City might take it as disrespectful and could spur them on.
