    You're all going to hate me... But for all Watford's possession, Kaminski has had f**k all to do today.

    We could be about 4-0 up on the chances we've created, and
    We might never know if Kaminski is any good with the amount of shots Ramsay and Jones block
    Dont need a Goalkeeper with those in front of goal ;)

    Ramsey looks very comfortable at this level
    Genuinely think he ends up in the prem. No idea what he was doing at Harrogate
    Posh totty?

    I know we love Doc in here but uncomfortable conversations might need to be had…..

    Skysports+ has spent more time focusing on the Watford manager sitting on his little box than the game.

    Great ball up to Campbell but he loses his balance as he tried to collect the ball on the line.

    Amari sticking to Sissoko like glue

    Erk Baah goes round Edwards, but we manage to retrieve
  • aso914aso914
    Good interception from Jones right there 
  • ForeverAddicktedForeverAddickted
    Great interception from Jones, Baah was a proper threat there, and for the first time Edwards lost the battle

    Kelman looking behind a little bit on pace...prove me wrong Charlie...
  • moutuakillamoutuakilla
    Wouldn't surprise me to see Knibbs on early second half. Been warming up a lot.

    Jones getting a lot of joy in their box this half
  • ForeverAddicktedForeverAddickted
    Been a difficult afternoon for Kelman so far, hasn't even had scraps to deal with... Can tell from his movement, and the few times on the ball, that he has signs of being a dangerous Striker
  • aliwibblealiwibble
    Another Jones header from a cross, but keeper saves easily
  • aliwibblealiwibble
    And Watford have a shot that balloons over the bar.

    I was quite pessimistic about our chances earlier this summer but I’d say, slightly more than 1% of the way into the season, were more than holding our own. We’ve had the better of it and let’s hope we can convert that into 3 points in the second half.

    Once we gel I think we've got a decent season ahead of us.

    Or, and this may sound crazy, we give players more than the first half of the first game of the season before we start writing them off?
    I’m willing to give him time to acclimate but he was showing flashes of this even in League 1

    HT 0-0, Good first half and can only see improvement in the second half when we are kicking towards The Covered End...

    Why would we want to do that?

    Doc and TC are easy to criticise because they have their daft moments on the ball but people have to recognise part of this is because they show so much for the ball. Doc provides an outlet for defenders and midfielders on the ball constantly and helps us keep possession while TC gets the ball punted up at him and has to make something of it. They can both improve on the ball but the amount of work they're putting in to try and make things happen in incredible
    Maybe it's harsh. But with Doc, he just seems to be putting passes wrong more than anyone else. Maybe you're right and it's because he has more of the ball but I don't ever really expect him to put a killer pass in...

    That said, if Jones had left that ball in the opening minutes, Doc would probably have scored and I'd be singing his praises ha.

    If there wasn’t two off three players having a below par game we would win every bloody week. It’s called football. 
  • aliwibblealiwibble
    Half time 0-0
  • golfaddickgolfaddick
    Our midfield duo from last season continuing their non-productiveness when in possession. Need to replace at least one of them if we want to create anything going forward. 

    Apter's crossing is a step up from Small's.....and is likely to score too !

    TC is frustrating. Sorry to say I think we have better on the bench.
  • mascot88mascot88
    Not scared of anything there - we should be leading. 

    Well played gents.  


  • ForeverAddicktedForeverAddickted
    BOOOOOOOO... Why arent we 5-0 up?

    The commentator seems rather besotted by him as well.
