Clumsy challenge on FF. Comes to nothing.

"Watford needing to get more tempo in their game".

Not the best game by the Horns first half.

Wigan playing a tactical game, not sending many players forward, but holding the ball well.

Will the spark come from someone on the bench at the moment? The game needs something to brighten it up.

 

Slow here also.
