Second half against Forest was much improved, but it wasn’t just the formation change, we also played more offensively.
My worry is we’ll show too much respect to Watford and we’ll set out defensively which makes us a worse team, especially as we aren’t really good enough to play on the counter.
Despite that I’m looking forward to the game, and am weirdly optimistic of a result.
Im sure they’ll be lots of criticism of our strikers during the games, but it’s sloppy mistakes and defensive errors that have cost us.
I’m not saying better strikers wouldn’t help, but I think half the people blaming them are just joining the trend as opposed to actually providing valid reasons why they’re the issue and Godden/Walker are our saviours. The same saviours who received plenty (and at times justified) criticism when they were playing.
Anyway, 2-1, Ostigard, Biamou.
