As far as i can tell by watching MOTD, Watford do have something about themselves. Deeney and Ighalo complement each other well in attack, Deeney as a sort of strong and bullish presence and Ighalo sneaking around him to latch on any balls his partner might win. Jurado looked a decent playmaker, while Behrami and Capue form a steady and experienced midfield partnership. I can see Watford causing us some problems.
This is going to be a tough game and Watford have players capable of doing us some damage. I'm not feeling very confident Think Yoshida will suddenly find himself left back for this game Stek, Soares, Caulker, Fonte, Yoshida, Vic, Romeu, Davis, Mane, Pelle, Tadic Long took a whack at the end of the game on Thursday. He seemed to carry on ok, but might be a doubt at starting, so i'd go with Dusan
Sky have just mentioned our game against Watford tomorrow! It was just an excuse to get a mention of Mane and Vics possible departure to be honest.
For the first 10 or 15 minutes of last night's game I thought we had signed a new player called Manéwhohasbeenlinkedtomanchesterunited.
When was the last match that we won away? Record not been great in recent times after such a good start away from home last year.
Actually, it's something Ron said but I can't remember which interview; it was a little while ago now (it might even have been before our first PL game, I don't remember). He said something like, "He is not ready to play 2 games in a week yet" - probably not the exact words, but definitely that was what he meant. Edit: After a lot of googling (and beginning to think I was going crazy), here it is. I'm assuming the video date may be when he said it?
Found it, Onionman, I edited it into the post above. I didn't realise it'd been that long since we won an away match, either! Gosh.
Sky getting it wrong again....Stelling says " Southampton got off to a flying start last season, this season is a bit different"...er, we have the same points as we did after 2 games... Tiss just made the same point
Had to sit in the home end with my Watford supporting girlfriend...Was tough to watch without celebrating!
Not a real hat trick unless it is scored within a few minutes. Our standards are rather higher these days.
Anyone else think this is turning out to be a strange season...some unexpected results just 3 matches in. On that basis you would expect Watford to....... No, not going to think about that.
