Watford v Saints Match Thread

Fantastic first half by Saints. A clear class above Watford. Looking at this, and last Sunday, you could say that the form table for the remaining games could easily have us top 4/5 clubs. We may yet surprise people w our final league position.

 

Stunned at how well Tadic, Redmond, JWP, Davies, Gabb are combining. Really exciting to watch.

This has been an absolutely brilliant game. Entertaining from both teams, and unexpected, considering both teams have nothing really to play for.

 

we really suit 4231 much better and redmond wide (shocker)

Like to see Boufal get on the pitch here

Been an entertaining game so far (much to my surprise!). Think we've edged it and deserve the lead. They're a very direct side and I think Stephens has struggled at times against the physicality of Okaka and Deeney, but both him and Yoshida have done okay so far.

Good performance by the team first half. They've lumped a load of balls around the box but Forster hasn't really had much to do after the goal (which he could do nothing about). Not sure why Stephens is getting stick. He seems to have the beating of his man, so much so that the Watford man got a yellow card for complaining about getting muscled out of it by Stephens. Need a Gabbi goal second half and the way Tadic is playing, you can see him getting another before the day's out. New boy might get a run out then. COYR.

If we do have a quiet summer I think we'll have something really special next season. Some of our play is of the highest quality it's great to watch.

 

Agreed, but we look very shaky at the back. If we hang on to VVD and get another decent CB in then yes, we'll be looking good for next season.

It's a long way from over yet. As the match moves on Saints could tire and the long ball will start to play havoc. I'd like to see Caceres come on at 70 minutes to provide some extra beef perhaps in a back 3/5 type formation rather than take Stephens off who I think has been as OK as Yoshida. I would not take JWP off for Boufal unless we score another or JWP is crocked - I actually think he suits this game more. Hope Puel doesn't tell them to sit back but keep up the fearless attacking we've shown so far.
