Do you think our midfield have been present?

I do, but our RWB has not been in the right position, Gyokeres has 2 guys up his arse, nobody else is breaking the lines because we're scared of their pace on the counter attack and so the midfield's passing options are extremely limited and therefore telegraphed.

Oggy and Clive already referring to the Watford keeper as Ben Amos (Wigan keeper) instead of Hamer.

And Assombalonga was fouled by Fadz, though Matthew Upson Sky's co-commentator said there wasn't much there. Fadz had him in a headlock, the Watford player injured himself overstretching to maintain balance and went over on his ankle as well. Think we were lucky there.

Where is Burroughs?

 

[pusbccfc]

Watford, like Stoke are a team full of great players. Showing again.

BNC passing to the keeper.

This could have been a yellow whereas the yellow he got never was.

Don’t wanna see BNC anymore. Get him off and back to Arsenal.

 

[Winny the Bish]

So much space between the attack and midfield. We're playing 3 centre mids who all want to play in the same space.

 

[Happy_Martian]

Hate saying it but Godden looks lost and out of ideas....his movement used to be good....wtf has happened

In fairness, most of the team look the same. 2 games in 72 hours ? Too much wine with their Easter dinners yesterday ? We come back stronger in the second half but we have to improve dramatically before this result gets too far out of sight.

 

[Sick Boy]

Was that supposed to be a shot or cross?

 

[Boosh]

Am I the only one who thinks esbrand is playing well?

All of our attacking midfielders are injured.

No, I think he looks ok going forward.

 

[covcity4life]

JWE growing into game a bit now after confidence shot at start

Would like to see some urgency from everyone though. We need 2 goals!

 

[Skybluedownunder]

You’re just clueless

You guessed we would win 3-0 so you are just as clueless

BNC would need to look up how to play football before he can tell you

 

[Evo1883]

Couple of lapses in concentration have cost us but we're not playing badly

 

[Great_Expectations]

Regardless of the full backs, Godden is non-existent as per, and Eccles not having a great game - we need something more offensive in there if we’ve got no 10 and essentially one up top.

But looking at the bench we’re pretty restricted, best we can do;

Definite;
Walker for Godden

Possible;
Dabo for BNC (I know, I know but what else do we have)
Maguire for Eccles (again I know but we need someone in that 10 role to link play and we’ve seen Howley not excel there)

 

[Matt smith]

Crumbling again

shock

esbrand playing good though

 

[mark82]

We just aren't good enough.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

To be honest the whole team looks done in. Been a long season and a lot of injuries.

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

Stand up and wave both arms around, so everyone on here at the game knows it’s you.

In fairness, Godden has looked lost for quite a while now. Looks like confidence has gone.

 

[Nick]

Jwe our best player

Miss a 10 desperately

 

[higgs]

Shooting practice ffs

Eh ? It's a pretty even match

He's having a very mixed game. Some brilliance and then some poor end product

Get rid he’s awful currently

 

[Tommo1993]

Just can’t get excited about a long distance shot. Feel more hopeful with corners.

 

[higgs]

Fuckig terrible

Regardless of wingbacks not being in the right positions (which I agree with), and being very weak in general, our midfield look shy and are frequently sitting in the wrong places, taking themselves out of the game. When they do get the ball, they look scared.

Watford seem to want it a lot more and are pretty settled now. They would rack their goals up quickly if they took it up a gear though.

 

[mark82]

We're against the wind in the second half.
