    Perhaps whipping off his top to reveal a T shirt emblazoned with the daily death count, followed by a sad face emoji.

    Can't see anything other than a routine 5-0 defeat, I'm afraid.

    Deeney will make some crass joke about it on TalkSport (while claiming he played well), Foster will grin and say "that's football" while encouraging people to hit the subscribe button, Gray will have a cheeky lockdown party to cheer himself up, Xisco will smile and gabble on about how great/unlucky we were (lest Gino shock him with a cattle prod), and Zinckernagel will despair about the ghastly mistake he's made.

    And Jesse Lingard will score - the ultimate humiliation.

    Are Pedro and Success fit to play. I think I saw Pedro in the Zinckernagel training video but had forgotten we even had Success

    No idea, will have to wait for Xisco's press conference. There have been lots of photos of Success back in training but with our club it's impossible to know if that means he's about to return or he's still two months away...

    Shame fans aren't allowed in to this one, not often we get a chance to travel to and play one of the biggest, if not biggest clubs in the country. Great days like this don't come about often for a club like Watford.

    Grammar pedantry is the solace of the well educated but dim witted.

    It would also give us a chance of a few more loanees.
    Assuming it doesn't happen in the next 24 hours... Manure 4-0 Watford.

    Hopefully Gray has the game of his life and gets a goal or two, sealing a move to some poor gullible team for an actual fee.

    Unlikely I know. Some would say impossible.

    I had a dream last night. We lost 4-0 and then Xisco got sacked straight after the game. Make of that what you will.

    You're a closet fan of Newton Heath and you are still uncertain about Xisco. Can you please pay my fee as soon as possible. Thank you. :D

    If it helps I was upset about the Xisco sacking as in my dream the cup game was his first game and we did a Mckinlay

    We "need to fight like animals" again.

    Wish he'd be more specific. Which animal?

    Hornets that chased and encircled Canaries?

    Or hedgehogs that rolled in a ball and gave up against Swans?

    This season is so boring. This was a classic "free hit" game and we could've started Success and/or Perica and seen if they had anything to offer. But no, of course they're injured so we have to persist with one or both of the gruesome twosome upfront. By the time they're fit, we'll be playing league games, trying to cling onto our play off position as the season slips away and Xisco won't be prepared to drop either of his senior strikers.

    And yes, I know that Perica and Success probably aren't up to it either but I'm so bored of seeing the other two underperforming.

    Hopefully at least Pedro can get some game time and force his way back into the team. He's inconsistent and has whole games where he's non-existent but I'd still rather him than the other two as at least there's the chance he might do something.

    Young enough to know how to correctly place full stops and question marks in sentences, apparently.

    3 or 4 0 to them players have a bit of a fight at the end over who gets to swap shirts with Ronaldo, xisco doesn’t give up clapping like a sea world seal for 90 mins, players can’t wait to get back to the card game on the bus.

    More motivational nonsense babbling out from Xisco's Twitter:
    @28xisco28

    We go there with maximum ambition. I know it will be difficult, because
    @ManUtd is a perfect team, but we need to give our best and try very hard. This is our objective and it’s important we continue with the same attitude, work and spirit
