Marco Silva

And considering our defence are as wide as the Mersey and our 2 holding midfielders can’t defend this will be like adding fuel to the fire

There’s more to togger than pretty football lads. He’s massively overhyped by the media

The football is good to watch but for every win we get versus someone like Arsenal, we'll lose to someone like Stoke, with a good hiding thrown in for good measure. We lost 6-0 at home and that seems to be glossed over (his hull side also took some almighty beatings I seem to recall). He seems to have no idea how to break down teams who come to sit deep and defend. He's got a lot to learn and may well learn it and end up being top class, but he definitely isn't there yet. If you're as loaded as it seems, you don't need to be gambling on someone like Silva and hoping he will get better. Him and a club like ours are about right for where he is now.
 

When all’s said and done I take my hat off to Watford.

They told us to do one and they held Silva to his contract (even though I think they may have made a big mistake there).

In similiar circumstances our board would have just rolled over in the unlikely event a bigger club offered the sun and the moon to take a manager from us with most of his contract still to run.

If only Saints had been so ballsy when Moshiri decided he must have Moonhead at any and all cost :rant:

Mate, £5M more on the table and their owners would have taken our arm off.

That's how principled Watford are.

As said, I wouldn't write this one off yet...not by a long chalk.

Years ago, perhaps. But when it comes to Watford, it’s fair to say that money doesn’t always talk.
 

Morning Croxteth

You must be quite pleased with developments overnight?

Hi Bungle,

I didn’t find the developments particularly surprising. Silva and Everton would have gone hand in hand, I think, but Watford stood firm. I think a lot of people expected Watford to yield to perceived ‘big money’.

Are you at the Atalanta game tonight mate? We could meet for pre-game drinks if you are?

I appreciate you're a London based blue so it's possible you wouldn't be about for a midweek game.
