It wasn’t meaningless for them was it? Weren’t they playing for position in terms of UCL qualification?
Isn’t that the whole problem with loans and mercenaries. It’s about building a team that has pride when it pulls on the jersey. When you are going back to your own club or out of contract maybe you don’t care. Get 11 players in where every performance matters and they don’t get in that situation. In case you can’t think of 11 players I’ll start you with a captain. Ian Ashbee.
And half the Spurs players weren't avoiding injury as they where planning to move club in the summer. Our team couldn't have cared less as most of them knew they would be leaving and getting a huge payrise elsewhere.
Watford's actions today totally justify his having his head turned by Everton. Maybe they deserve each other. He was our best manager since Bruce, but never the Messiah.
And he is unemployed. Tenth doesn’t reflect they are much closer to 17th that 8th! One loss off matching 17th place!
I’d have kept Silva given the chance, but whichever way you look at it he failed here because he didn’t keep us up and that was his only target Shabby touting himself to Everton so early in his tenure at Watford No pining for him here thank you
The fact that he got anywhere close to achieving that target with the squad he inherited and the additions he made was still a remarkable achievement though. I regard him with warmth.
No such thing as close in football. We got relegated. Swansea managed it. Failure. Nothing remarkable in that at all. Getting to two FA cups and Europe... that’s remarkable. You need to remove the rose tinted specs and see it for what it was.
Failed to keep us up. Currently 1 win in 10 and 4 points above the drop zone with Watford dropping like a stone. No loyalty what so ever. I’m ****ed if I know why people are saying he’ll walk into a top job. If he was English he’d be destined for the Championship at best.
