cambridgeshire canary 7,800 Posted September 11, 2020 I'm not often too interested in these kinds of matches, but given that A- Watford should be a promotion rival B- Will be interesting seeing how they both do, and opening day I'm quite looking forward to this one. Live on Sky Sports too, the main event. What are your score predictons? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dylanisabaddog 6,149 Posted September 11, 2020 Would someone please wake me up if anything happens. Watford v M'boro is in the Oxford English Dictionary as a definition of 'boring'. I hope they both lose 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Moss 2,167 Posted September 11, 2020 Watford fans not happy with the line up - quite a few noticeable absentees too that have not even been mentioned by the club regarding their exclusions etc - Sarr, Deeney, Hughes etc. Not the worst news for us though. Makes me wonder if we may get a surprise ourselves tomorrow though. Was fancying Watford to win, but will now go 1-2 Middlesbrough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Their striker (Joao Pedro, is it?) is very well thought of. And I think Boro aren't that good. Interesting that both sides are playing three at the back. Is that going to the fashion this year?

I'll go 2-0 Watford. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2,035 Posted September 11, 2020 I'll be quite happy if that's Watford's squad this season and if that's all they've got? As for Middlesbro....ordinary. Warnock will probably walk away and retire 'again' before the season's done. I'd imagine there's more Middlesbro's in this league than there are Watford's ...and they were nothing No excuses for us this season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All the Germans 1,239 Posted September 11, 2020 Watford were lucky to win that. Should have been a (boring) draw, if Middlesbrough could finish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazzaJet 267 Posted September 12, 2020 For a team that has a squad with very good PL experience, I think that’s a very poor result for them. I think ‘Boro were actually the better side - 11 attempts, 4 on target, to Watford’s 10, 2 on target. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, a draw would have been a fairer result. Didn't see much to fear from either team but it is of course very, very early days! OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clint 221 Posted September 12, 2020 Allegedly Watford have 11 players out injured. It seems a very large number and also very coincidental that it’s all their remaining best players, who would be attracting interest from other clubs. A club in turmoil I’d say.

HazzaJet 267 Posted September 12, 2020 Didn’t know they were suffering from 11 injuries. Could turn out to be a massive blow for them, although I don’t know whether they’re short or long term injuries. Bournemouth have already lost a lot of talent, but in my opinion Watford have the best PL talent out of the 3 of us and with the transfer window not closing until October, I think they’re at high risk of losing more. I won’t be surprised if we lose more talent before the deadline but as we have the least PL experience and no need to sell, I can’t see us losing all our talent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A dinosaur as a manager, a style of play I would never want at our club, but - and I am not really sure why - I quite like him as a pundit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
