    Perica will be available next match - I've no idea if that's good or not...

    We are pretty hard to break down so far which makes up for the lack of goals.
    On balance thought we were worth the win, it's just no that exciting to watch at the moment.
    Have a good w/e all & thanks for your company.

    That feels like last season when he got that red card at Newport!

    Vlad says we were poor and needs to improve in attack but says Pedro can be a top player

    He does have that serious look when interviewed!

    Had to chuckle at Aidy Boothroyd's summing up -
    "If I were a Watford fan..."
    not 20 seconds after saying
    "We were playing out of defence and sweeping upfield..."

    Aidy didn't look too well - maybe suffering a bit with the pressure of the England job and general circumstances?

    Well if Messi had scored that then we wouldn't hear the last of it. WOW!

    Never noticed before, but wasn't Wilmot's run before and after passing him the ball impressive? It seemed to open a hole in their defence.

    I guess we are used to him being full of energy and passion so to speak.

    Maybe there was just one camera angle too!!

    Yes I thought he looked very subdued, in fact at first I did not know who he was until his name came up. Hope he is ok.

    Did you see him duck as Pedro shot, luck, instinct or just very on the ball.

    Relegation, behind closed doors games & the uncertain economy have made this a really difficult period for #watfordfc. I believe it’s been handled admirably and as a supporter I’m grateful that we’ve got what looks like a great squad at our disposal, lead by a superb Head Coach.
    Ivić deserves immense credit for steadying the ship during a tumultuous and uncertain few months. He’s delivered an organised and disciplined #watfordfc side - to concede just once (via a deflection) in 5 league games is a fabulous achievement.
    With players coming back from suspension and injury, Ivić will have more quality and experience at his disposal, hopefully allowing for a proper challenge at the top of the Championship. I’m excited to see what Vlad and the #watfordfc class of 20/21 can deliver. Bring it on.

    The view of Rookery Mike.

    Yes - almost as though they practised it on the training ground.

    Unusual to say the least - Vlad says Pedro went off last night because he was tired...

    I heard that too - but I think it may just have been an assumption. Vlad said afterwards that he was tired - maybe tired is Serbian for cramp...;)
