Match Day Thread Watford vs QPR

[Sooperhoop]

Well deserved win, we were the better side. Onwards and upwards you rrrrssss...

Just a thought, how many managers have Watford had in the last year? Could be another P45...

A win in a midweek televised match?

Bit of both. Was a good ball but Austin was too smart for the defenders.

What Austin did well there was ignoring the defender in front of him and being positive that the ball was going to come to him. A surprising number of strikers don't react because they simply expect the defender to get it.

Incredible ... and news just broken that Messi has signed a pre-contract deal with us too.

 

[KentGaz]

Has anyone mentioned we’re only 12 points off the playoffs?

I know he's the Messiah, but Austin didn't really do anything to create the goal, the defender got caught under the cross. Good header, though.

Todd Kane had more touches than anyone else,
He was our out ball and main attacking delivery all night,
A large chunk of his passes went in the right place
He would have looked better if it hadn’t been Bonne he was serving

Got inbetween them

Well played Kane tonight

 

[QPR999]

Not right

Haa!

I think you two missed my reply to the comment your referring to.

The goal mas made by the cross, not Charlie's movement.

It was a great cross.
Austin positions himself between the two centre backs.
Good all round.

I'm sorry but I think Kane has fooled everyone into thinking he's played a blinder by playing much better than his usual poor work.

I'll break down why not:

Several times he made a clearance in the box and basically headed/touched it right back into danger.

A lot of crosses into the first defender.

Often turned backwards when he could have looked forward. When he turns back, he's got no left foot to pass it back towards the middle of the pitch. Got stuck because of that a few times.

Positives: good effort, committed, some cracking crosses at times. He did well. Seems like a good guy. But I'd still play Kakay, so that we can actually break teams down on the right hand side.

So, for me, there are players who didn't put a foot wrong and deserve MOTM.

Awjm, dwell on the positives tonight, we won!!
Yippee

Dykes would have put it in the stand...

 

[qprbeth]

Great result. Kane was mom.
He did so much.
I didn't give Wallace a chance with Sarr but on the whole he did okay.
Barbet and Duckie are now a real unit.

Wonderful result...but don't rest on it
Only 7 points off the relegation places...hard to believe after tonight's performance

Every silver lining has a cloud.....

Chill out dude.

The warm glow you feel after a Monday night away win on Sky against the team with the best home record in all four divisions is tampered when you turn on Sky Sports and they only have old mutton chops on as their expert for the last hour of the transfer window. Alrite Arry.

 

[Goldhawk-Road]

Bloody Swedish television, they ended the program before the lifting of the cup.

Maybe they'll cover the open topped bus tomorrow

 

[Quality Pies and Rissoles]

A win live on Sky, a win at the home of the best home team in English football this season, first win v top half team, a win coming from behind, a 50th QPR goal for Charlie, a really good performance from Mr.Kane and a winner with 1st goal from uncle. Please let me sleep for another while.

 

[Ranger4ever]

Albert's take down from Kane's cross was exquisite. Just saying......
