Make of it what you will....(new arrivals in bold) Taken from...http://www.watfordfc.com/news/article/130725-201314-squad-numbers-943936.aspx 1 Manuel Almunia (GK) 2 Reece Brown 3 4 Gabriele Angella 5 6 Joel Ekstrand 7 Cristian Battocchio 8 9 Troy Deeney 10 Lewis McGugan 11 Fernando Forestieri 12 Lloyd Doyley 13 14 15 Javier Acuna 16 Sean Murray 17 18 Daniel Pudil 19 Marco Faraoni 20 Diego Fabbrini 21 Ikechi Anya 22 Almen Abdi 23 Iriney (must be Brazilian tradition to only use one name) 24 Britt Assombalonga 25 Uche Ikpeazu 26 Bernard Mensah 27 Marco Cassetti 28 Connor Smith 29 30 Jonathan Bond (GK) 31 Tommie Hoban 32 Luke O’Nien 33 Nyron Nosworthy Gaps for defenders and another keeper???
I suspect 3 will be the new LWB, depending on what happens with Romero. 5 possibly the new Algerian CB, and 13 a new keeper. The rest will be used for loans as and when we need any.... Chalobah
I think we look very competitive this season, albeit on paper only so far. We have made some improvements on our weak areas, mainly defense. Moreover we seem to have added some decent experience with a blend of youth. Ticking the boxes, the Pozzos are, let's hope Zola can get the best out of them... Probably the most excited I've been before the start of a season in time... ROLL ON THE START OF THE SEASON...
uno due tre quattro cinque sei sette otto nove dieci .... just playing with you boys... good luck for the coming season.
WE didn't concede too many last season but more of a worry that our 'first choice' strike force couldn't score at York City last night ...
Well friendlies won't show too much FF. If the striker situation gets dry Zola might be able to loan you ono o dos...
Who knows if Vydra is at Watford at the moment mate with Deeney and FF in the first 11, I am not sure if he's coming back. Could the number 14 be reserved for Vydra...was that his number last season?....he hasn't been one of the 'influx' so far....http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23451403
Given Knockaert's performance last season, I see no reason why you guys shouldnt get plenty from dead ball plays. Im just messing of course.
Mex, he was #20 last season. If we were to move last season's players up, in the order they were in, then add the new arrivals afterwards, Hogg would be #2, Deeney #3 and Bond something like 11 or 12!
The rumour about South African guy is getting stronger - supposedly a £4M purchase by Udinese to be loaned to us for the season.
