How did that not go in

[Jamesimus]

Well it’s not been a boring game so far has it.

 

[Johnnythespider]

That was harder to miss, well played Mason Clark

 

[Nick]

Wright has to score that

 

[Blind-Faith]

How.did.he.miss

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

Rudoni back for Torp (or Eccles), BTA or Bassette in the ‘ten’ - the other one on for Simms maybe

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Rarely critisise MR, but it's clear that we need fresh legs. He needs to change something.

What we need is more energy in midfield but there’s only Allen who plays there.

 

[gspotgaz]

Anywhere on target it’s in keeper was stranded

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Damn just needed that to go in for Wright. Would’ve been undeserved but who cares

 

[EalingSB]

That's what we need from EMC, superb cross whipped in with pace. Haji has to score that (hit the post from a central postion four metres or so out for those not watching).

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

MVE has to do better for this goal. Number of times this season crosses have been coming on down his side that are leading to goals.

 

[Nick]

Shock we are on top and they get another injury.

 

[Cov98]

Torp off for Allen and get Bassette on for either Simms or Mason Clark for his aggression and I think we have a chance

 

[steve101]

How on earth can Wright miss that?!

 

[napolimp]

Don't understand why people are having a go at the players, saying they were amazing first half and crap now. Nothing to do with them. Watford just adapted to the game tactically, and we haven't changed anything. Robins just showing incredible naivety, time and time again this season.

 

[stupot07]

Both teams are far too open.

 

[MalcSB]

Shock we are on top and they get another injury.

Certainly trying to make this one look authentic,

Dasilva is nowhere too, the man is completely free at the back post.

Wow that’s harsh on our best player this year

Tell me what they changed?

 

[Cov98]

BTA warming up it looks like

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

I was surprised we started with 3-4-2-1 but as soon as we went back to 4-2-3-1, we’ve looked far too open!

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Need to get Bassette in and Simms off and try to play through their backline. C’mon MR go for it and be brave.

 

[Nick]

Tell me what they changed?

3 players
They pressed torp more and put him under
They targeted our right

 

[Briles]

MVE has to do better for this goal. Number of times this season crosses have been coming on down his side that are leading to goals.

Bollocks he even shouted where the fuck is everyone. 2 on 1 he had Zero help

Yeah, can’t knock the players. Think we’ve played well, especially going forward but those three subs for them gave them a boost at the right time

People are desperate for the midfield to be the problem but they’ve all been good, especially Torp and Eccles. The problem has been down the flanks

 

[Jamesimus]

Looks like an ACL that one, big miss for Watford if so.

 

[ptr]

Their best player off. Come on now ffs. Norm on for EMC.

 

[coop]

Get Bassette on for Simms and BTA for Clark.

Yet we've just had the best chance of the half again, I think you need to accept that you will come under pressure in games when you're leading away from home.

agree to a point - we are tactically very naive, and not for the first time, BUT the players are also partly to blame as they can also see what is happening and can up their games too…

looks like a lot of players can’t get through 65/70 minutes of football without blowing out their arse too, so much for a performance director???

 

[Blind-Faith]

Fuck them, cheating cunts. Their best player has gone off, let’s get a last minute winner

 

[stupot07]

I was surprised we started with 3-4-2-1 but as soon as we went back to 4-2-3-1, we’ve looked far too open!

We didn't play 3421, it was always 4231 with Lati at right back, and Milan on the right wing

 

[Sick Boy]

Looks like Eccles has hurt his shoulder.

We have not played 3421 at any point this afternoon.
