That’s very lenient. He’s played wide before, he’s pacey and it’s not a position TOTALLY alien to him. It’s not like we’re sticking Keane out there.

Look, it’s only one half of Football so it’s early days but he’s up against Kiko Femenia, he’s got to do better. He really has to make the most of these starts when they come about.

Watford have pushed up and left quite a high line a few times, we’ve had a couple of decent counter opportunities. He’s perfect for those, just need to see a bit more from him. I’m sure Silva will be demanding more too. Not just from him, but from Dom and particularly Rico and Wobes too.

Yes, he's played wide left before. For Juve. Not wide right. You realize Ronaldo plays wide right inside striker for them, yeah? Christ.

He played wide one time for Juve's first team. Other than that he's been a center forward since he moved up from the u16s. Saying he's played wide so he can do it is like saying Dom's played RB before so he can do it. Technically you're right but it is horrid management to actually do it.
 

That was potentially the worst, home or away, 45 mins of football we've played all season.
Yes this is the cup, but Watford are a poor prem side, and anyone who doesn't think we are genuine relegation candidates now is in denial.
We have probably the worst center back partnership in the league in Keane and Holgate (with Mina out) and Gomes and Delph are made of paper. Behind them you have Davies and Schneiderlin who are hopeless.
DCL wouldn't start for any other prem team.
The ONLY thing we have going for us at the moment is Richarlison, he must be wondering what on earth is going on. He'll be off next summer, make no doubts.
We are a laughing stock.

Keep seeing this but what have they actually done? They look as bad as us and it’s 80% a first team for them too.

Gomes, Quina, Foulquier, Femenia, Prodl, and Mariappa are definitely bench fodder.

Hughes and Gray don’t make most of their 1st choice XI either.

I would hook DCL, what impact is he having? Give Kean a chance he actually looks like he wants to have a go

DCL offers nothing imo goals he's scored just paints over cracks

That's fine too I guess. But we need at least one winger who can pass to a teammate on ASAP
