That was the worst first half of football I have seen from a professional football team. Bizarre team selection. Smyth who hasn’t had any pre Season. Kelman who is awful. Chair out wide when he is better playing central. 1.5 midfielders leaving us totally outnumbered. No press at all and allowing Watford the ball totally unchallenged into our own half. I understand that our centre backs are out but we were unforgivably bad all the way through the team. I have absolutely no idea what the game plan was. Only positive was that Duke McKenna and Armstrong bothered running around a bit when they came on.

Another positive: we were worried about Begovic being rusty.... he's going to get plenty of practice, very quickly.

Made one great save second half and was quite good overall. Distribution wasn’t great but I’m not sure if that was just Dykes being so isolated.

Yep,we know he hasn't got any funds but he knew that when accepting the role.
We're desperate for leaders on and off the pitch,and I'd wager these players don't rate GA or his tactics,which are questionable.they look beaten.

And I agree with you, but he can't bring in any players that are leaders or of any quality cos he's got **** all to spend. So what's the solution, it would be the same for any other manager who comes in. We're stuck with turd on and off tge field !

I disagree. A better coach would at least organise us and the players would at least want to play for him.
I have a mate who's a Watford season ticket holder who was there today.
He said that we we the worst looking side tactically he's ever seen. He said it was clear that the players weren't playing for him.
He's simply inept.

This team have zero respect for Gareth, he’s had the whole summer but there’s no team spirit. They’re no tactics and the players we’ve bought in aren’t anywhere near championship level. Other teams on tight budgets and limited resources get a team together. We’ll be in L2 before we know it.

Is anyone actually surprised by this ? There isn't 1 decent player in our side. The defence is utterly pathetic and we don't actually have a proper centre back out there. Midfield just utterly clueless, what a ****ing buy Dozzell was ! Blame Ainsworth if you want but he can't change **** all if he's got no money to bring in anyone he wants. We couldn't even give him 350k for Forino ffs. The attitude of the players stinks,, yeah theyre ****, but just strolling around doing **** all is totally unacceptable. If I was Ainsworth I'd sub off as many of them as possible. We conceded 71 last season, we'll concede over 100 this season with this lot. Gutless bunch of ****ters

GA set up with a back 6 out of possession with zero pressing from the other 4, and didn't change this when we were being played through for fun. That's nothing to do with money that's **** management
