Match Thread Watford v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Frenk]

That was absolutely dreadful.

Coleman and Gray might as well not be playing. Keane and Holgate need about 50 touches to get the ball under control, no urgency, no desire to get on the ball

Safety at stake here ffs but yeah PLEASE DO TAKE TOUR TIME FFS

Pathetic 1st half

Agree and they have absolutely no excuses. They have the chance to get themselves out of it and now they are back to this garbage. To be honest it’s really disgraceful.

 

[Ring master]

Annoying thing is if we win here and Leeds lose - leeds would have to win both their final games to go above us.
COYB

yep, we win, they lose tonight/draw Sunday at most, we end up Safe baring a massive turnaround on GD before we even ko Sunday

 

[Stephen Gibson]

Our defenders are awful at playing out from the back & our 2 attacking wingers have zero final ball & are so selfish. Gray needs binning this half.

 

[matty1878]

Leeds losing is great and another player injured and a red. Leeds arnt gonna win another game

we’re drawing mate that’s irrelevant

everton need this

I think he’s scared to change a winning formula, especially if we were to Everton it up against this muck.

We're fourth from bottom precisely because we are not a half decent side.

The mutual masturbation on here since the weekend has been a sight to behold. A sense of complacent triumphalism has emerged since Sunday. We are in the mire and if we are to get out of it it will be slowly but surely rather than spectacularly. The main thing is not to lose tonight. There will be twists and turns.

I haven't read anyone say it was over... Maybe I missed it. I certainly never thought it was.

 

[Ghost Rider]

We are a mix between playing like Watford are a threat and playing like we know Watford aren't a threat.

Any of the top teams would be well out of sight by now.

Gray is god awful , a shame because he clearly has talent but runs into danger, never picks a pass over a shot and even his shooting is once every 10 games maybe hitting the target.

 

[Goat]

Gordon needs to be more tidy with his final ball, think aaron lennon had more end product

The lad has played a LOT of minutes this season, mostly at 100mph, I think he needs a rest personally, but then he will have all Summer soon, so.

 

[johnjoeefc]

Yeah perfectly set up for alli this

 

[Bluestar]

This.

Why people are blaming the players I dont know.

We're up against a team with 10 behind the ball and we have a kin back 5.

First and foremost, don’t lose.

He will probably retain this system for the first 10 or 15 of the second half.

 

[Clarky cat]

watford are shocking, a bit of belief and a bit more quality and we will batter these. One of the coaching staff need to have a word in Grays ear at half time to get his bloody head up! Selfish again and not putting in the required effort. cometh the hour cometh the Dele…. this game needs something special from someone and Dele is my bet

 

[DanB90]

I think I’ve seen this film before.

 

[dannyboy]

Gordon needs to be more tidy with his final ball, think aaron lennon had more end product

I've said it before, there are so few options for him to pick out. He must look up and see one blue shirt surrounded by 3 or 4 in yellow.

 

[COYB75]

Hook Gray and bring on DCL. Iwobi in to midfield.
Pickford,
Coleman, Keane, Holgate, Lenko
Doucs, Delph, Iwobi
Gordon, DCL, Richy

 

[ChesterBlue]

Really need to add some attacking intent in the second half

 

[Wat Tyler]

This isn’t the time for arm round the shoulder stuff, Lampard has to bollock the lot of them, how do they need motivation ffs?
