Pilchards Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 I think Adkins has set his stall out for a point away from home and 3 points all home games.

I don't think so, if you're comparing Watford away to Birmingham or West Ham, then you shouldn't, points there are good, at places like Watford 3 points are needed.

Crazy Diamond Posted 19 February, 2012 Share Posted 19 February, 2012 Watford are doing a hell of a lot better than I thought they would. I suspected they'd be bottom throughout the campaign based on what I saw at St. Mary's and their dreadful pre-season. Tough one to call, I hope we turn up like we did at Forest.

Sour Mash Posted 20 February, 2012 Share Posted 20 February, 2012 Saw their highlights from their Saturday game against Palace and their defending/goal keeping looked abysmal, guarantees they'll all have a blinder against us.

We should have more than enough good players to pick from to get this job done. Chaplow a passenger!!!!!!???!!!!!! he took a hefty challenge first half on Saturday, checked everything was in order as he got up realised that it was all ok and started playing like the Jack Russell on speed that we have come to love from him. Give Lee another good run out, not only does he have a good touch but he is a quick tenacious player who will have defenders worried all the time he is on the pitch.

jamesb Posted 20 February, 2012 Share Posted 20 February, 2012 Too true. Chaplow was all over it, putting himself on the line several times. I thought we looked reenergised and different tomany games recently. I like the idea of Sharp first half, Lee second. See how it goes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets B Avenue Posted 20 February, 2012 Share Posted 20 February, 2012 1981 I think - Luther Blissett was on fire that evening... 1980. After we won the home leg 4-0. After 90 mins it was 5-1 but the away goals rule dosen't apply till the end of the tie. 2 mins later and a 16 year old Nigel Callaghan volleyed in a corner.

JRM Posted 20 February, 2012 Share Posted 20 February, 2012 these family tickets are ridiculous, just put them all on sale, with fair adult and child prices, clearly there isn't demand of 1 adult 1 child restricted tickets, most people who take kids either go with additional adults or additional kids, rather than just a pair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see this being a draw with the team bringing on Hammond with 10 to go to tighten things up again. Whilst a point away and 3 at home should do it this really is the kind of game that we should be looking at 3 points if we are to get top 2. Merely aiming for a point in away games puts huge pressure on our home form so when we can get 3 we need to go for it. I think we'll need 26 points for an auto place so a win at Watford will reduce the target down to 23 from 13 games with 6 at home. Very doable IMO.

Sharp to start as well because he needs that goal to get his confidence up and get him firing - dropping him to the bench ain't going to help. If he's not on it by 60 minutes we can put Lee on, because at that point Watford's defence will be tired and Lee will be able to exploit that.

up and away Posted 20 February, 2012 Share Posted 20 February, 2012 Chaplow a passenger!!!!!!???!!!!!! he took a hefty challenge first half on Saturday, checked everything was in order as he got up realised that it was all ok and started playing like the Jack Russell on speed that we have come to love from him. Give Lee another good run out, not only does he have a good touch but he is a quick tenacious player who will have defenders worried all the time he is on the pitch. Chaplow was better this game, some good periods but still flagging at times and not up to his usual standards. I am not saying don't play them, but don't start them unless fully fit. If you start more than a couple of players that are not fully fit you have a fair chance of being left with them on the pitch if changes are vital eleswhere. Bring them on in the second half and you have no such issues. I don't know which players to select for this game because of many factors, but no way would I start Sharp and Chaplow unless I was certain they could go the distance after their last two games. It's one thing picking that team to start against Derby at home, another away to Watford. Just look back at Saturdays game and why were Sharp and Chaplow substituted early? Then throw in a forced substitution and you don't have the numbers to alter the game with a couple of substitutions elsewhere. This could have been an issue against Derby, but at home and given their away form it's not difficult to see Adkins logic. After watching Watford against Leicester, I doubt Adkins will take that risk again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 20 February, 2012 Share Posted 20 February, 2012 Lee's earned his place with THAT goal, but I must say it doesn't always pan out like that, and I can see Adkins even keeping faith with Sharp, or putting Connolly or Guly in. I hope not, as I really want Lee to settle here and come good. Our right wing has gone from suspect to fantastic in a matter of a month. Guly will most likely be utilised there rather than up front now we have Lee and Sharp, Puncheon needs to be kept happy, De Ridder has a contribution to make and Chaplow keeps playing himself into contention too. With Lallana undroppable, it's not like they can even switch to start on the left! Something's gotta give, but what a pleasant headache for Adkins.

saintbob40 Posted 21 February, 2012 Share Posted 21 February, 2012 Chaplow is like a naughty Labrador puppy. He's everywhere and into everything. First touch lets him down at times but you cannot fault his enthusiasm and luckily Morgan and Cork are intelligent footballers and fill in where necessary.
