For those who like to twitter, our new man is signed up. http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sp...England_to_help_Watford_achieve_their_goals_/
Got to give him a chance haven't you... Lets wait and see what Garcia can do with the squad. Needs time before being judged. He'll soon get criticism though if he plays such negative football as has been suggested. We had that with Vialli.
An interesting article here about OG as he was going to Brighton. http://notworththat.wordpress.com/2...insists-oscar-garcia-is-destined-for-the-top/ From the reports I have seen about him while he was there, his attacking options were at rock bottom and he played the system he did to cover up that fact. A Brighton fan said that it was amazing he achieved so much with a threadbare squad.
Seems a good appointment on paper, not bothered with Brighton fans negative comments they would not be saying them if they had won the play off's. The only down side as I see it is that his CV shows he likes to resign from his postions alot so we could have our third short term appointment under the Pozzo's and something that would continue as per pre Pozzo's involvement in the club as well.
Oscar Garcia is meeting his new colleagues at Watford this afternoon after taking over as head coach. The former Albion boss has agreed a contract believed to run until the end of next season. He is likely to be joined by Ruben Martinez, his goalkeeping coach at the Amex and in two stints at Maccabi Tel Aviv. mm....
Firstly, he ticks more boxes than our last manager. Secondly, thank god he has the International Break to get things up and running. Thirdly, it might not be a bad thing if Alec Chamberlain goes. Finally, I hope he gets us up! RAPIDAMENTE!
very sad but true alec has been a great servant of the club . it would be nice if a place could be found for him . and og likes to use his own people
Suppose the coaches will speak English which might be something.. If Garcia likes a defensive style of play Doyley will be in the squad as that is his strength. Afterall even Zola played him!
doyley has been great for the club but i think his days are numbered but he will be on the 1881 flag for us all to follow
Interesting that on the day we announce a new boss, this thread has slipped below threads about Scottish independence, best ever Watford wins, worst ever Watford defeats, politics, pub quiz, etc. Glad we have someone with some championship experience, but time will tell. Wonder if we spoke to RDM and I wonder who ruled who out. Hilarious that OG chose us over the mighty, dirty Leeds. Obviously no ambition
Brilliant stuff - pure comedy. I have no idea why people think Leeds fans have chips on their shoulders or are still living in the past.......no idea at all.
its not a bad start there will be lots of us there and we make lots of noise and charlton has not had a clean sheet all season , even if the result is not what he would like its win win lol
'With all due respect to Watford even if they are promoted this year their natural limitations will probably see them peak in lower mid table in the Prem before eventually sinking to the Championship again - they're on a par with Norwich. Get Leeds United buzzing again and there really is no limit to how far this club can go. Either way, in the fullness of time...I suspect it will be Garcia that made the mistake of choosing Watford rather than Leeds 'missing out' on Garcia...' Priceless
Much as we may like to mock, sadly in these days there's a great deal of truth in their claims. However, so long as our "eventually sinking" back to the Championship takes about 40 years (like Coventry), and the "get Leeds buzzing again" takes about that long as well, then we haven't got too much to worry about.
