Recommended Posts

Quintilla is our 2nd choice LB, hasn’t played much, and is up against probably the best out and out winger in the league. Not surprising that he’s under the cosh. The attacking players aren’t doing enough to hold the ball up and keep Watford busy.

If you took sarr out of Watford’s team I think they’d be very ordinary

And they’d only have 10 men 👍

its interesting how set Xavi Quintilla is in his ways. I.e he is always trying to put in a high cross. His crosses are great, but we dont really have anyone good at heading in there. Maybe Dowell can head the ball? otoh Pukki once headed a goal in from a Quintilla cross at the start of the season.

 

Xavi works much better together with Hugill while Giannoulis and Pukki work better together

We need to target Hughes and get him sent off

Can we get Sarr to punch him? Kill two birds with one stone...

If there was any doubt Quintilla is coming up with us, it's removed tonight.

Good half of football. Really enjoyable watching the cat and mouse, ebb and flow of this.

 

If you are a neutral. 

Watford are the better side. That’s clear. But we’re still in it.

One of the better 0-0s I've seen for a while. Worried about the Sarr v Quintilla battle though, Xavi looking all over the shop defensively.

Agreed. Sarr is probably the best out-and-out winger in this division but Quintilla is struggling to contain him.

I think he’s doing a decent job considering Sarr is the best winger in the division, he’s often one on one and the lack of football he’s had prior to this match.

We're looking a bit jaded, leggy. Sarr is doing well with his pace - the one thing our side genuinely lacks.

I don't think they're better. Just finding Sarr as often as they can. Can't blame them. When you have a very pacey player you try to put him one on one with whoever he's against.

They have definitely targeted our left side as a weak point. But they are very one dimensional, it’s basically look up and hit it to Sarr.

Don't see why everyone on here seems so negative. 

Tough game and watford have to be up for it. 

We also have our second choice left back who has hardly played up against a really strong player. 

Ultimately a point suits both teams. 

Chill out. We are playing OK.

Watford also need 3 points far more than we do
