...if we keep winning, and results keep going our way like they have been lately, we could go top against Ipswich on March 1st. That would be good wouldn't it
Gonna be a tough ask to go top when you play us Sunday I'd say ! But you could go ahead of us ( sadly! )
It's beginning to look promising, and not what I expected a month or so ago. If Boro & Bournemouth keep dropping points then City can do it - much to my surprise.
Nobody thought you were mad - just overly optimistic! Nobody thinks that after today. Stunning result. We've given ourselves a massive chance now. I wonder how many points clear we'd have been had AN been in charge all season? Tactical mastermind this afternoon.
6/1 to be champions now, 5/4 for promotion. Ipswich now 20/1 to be champions, longer odds than we've been at any point this season, despite the fact they are still higher than us in the table (for now at least)
Just read the Interview of todays game with Alex Neil on the official site ,he referred to Grabban as "the complete striker" . I think I have stepped into the Twighlight Zone.
I compared Grabban to Simeon Jackson the other day and this current run of form is reminiscent of the latter's towards the end of the 2010-11 season. Let's hope there's a similar outcome!
Agree with you on that with the tactics. I was worried in the first half, because I didn't think the shape was working, there was several times where Watford switched wing quickly and Whittaker had Anya and their left winger running at him with no real support from Howson. To be fair Whittaker actually dealt with those situations brilliantly, but I thought it be a problem. The lack of width going forward was a bit of a problem because the passing in the first half was pretty poor to be honest. Neil stuck to it and in the second half it worked a treat, the passing and movement was much better and the shape flourished because of it. Defence was superb, they had 1 shot on target and Watford have been scoring a fair few goals this season. Wes was fantastic and Jerome again putting in a cracking display.
