Excellent article....
Not very pleasant to read Sarr has been fouled more than any one in the championship...
Not very surprised either. Quite a few of the fouls have been genuine mistakes as he is quicker (especially his feet, not just his stride) than the opponent realises. The rest have been typical. Saturdays's pen was just plain agricultural.
Watford are expected to stick with Xisco Munoz as head coach next season, the Watford Observer understands.

Chalobah on the BBC site and Bachmann just now on 5live really talking about how much of a difference Munoz made with his personality and getting the team together.

Club to stick with him?

Probably wise... might be a bit of flack otherwise, an own goal of biblical proportions. Deserves his chance.
Has to be someone who is not looking for the top job but wants to pass on his knowledge and experience
Far to big a name and with his reputation does not need to be looking at "little old Watford"

Sounds like he thinks he is staying.

I think, personally, it is a bit strange that the club haven´t said he is staying on for next season.
Will the club be ruthless again?

Is he out of contract?
They won’t need to say anything if not.
Just be business as usual I guess.

Probably if negotiations are in progress they cant say anything... whereas he can ....... I think his contract was just till the end of the season??
Probably just waiting till the season is over.
Concentrating on the last 2 games and all that.
You’d like to think he will stay but the Pozzos won’t want to spend too long sorting out a contract.
But the players like him which must be key.
We could try looking for another manager who they fall out with after about 3 weeks like they did with Ivic.

I think it has long been in hand. Xisco strikes me as being judicious with his comments and the Pozzo's are famous as much for keeping their cards close to their chest. If the board hadn't already instructed their legal team prior then I think that the celebrations at Cardiff City will have spurred them into action. Deserves his chance, mentor or none.
He did say when he arrived that he has experience of winning throughout his career and this has continued to be true. Nor did he win with the biggest teams Tbilisi, at least by Georgian standards, being the exception.
