    No. Absolutely nothing unless someone at the ground can do a livestream on their phone.

    That lineup is so bad, it's best we don't show it to anyone. I believe the entire crowd have been blinded by those new lights.

    Thought not. Wish I could’ve gone today.

    You do know that it was only because Silva was our saviour and Gracia is the devil incarnate!

    Oh that and the only way to be successful is to spend ludicrous amounts of money we don't have on a player just cause people have heard of them!

    Funny how people who said that last season's team did well to stay up are now confident that we are going to stay up with much the same team, with some of our older players still older and slower, Richarlison sold and no visible end to our injury farce.

    Why don't you give yourself a few targets to wait for Moog before giving up. The first one could be the when the transfer window ends, the second could be say after our first two games, and the you can really go to town after 10 games. Personally that's when I'll decide how our prospects look.

    Your data show how favoured the Clarets were last term.

    Your squad averaged 5 missed games per player & the main absentee was less able than his replacement.

    Walk a day in our W Herts shoes.

    The Burnley sicknotes total 135 or so.

    With our injury count, I suspect they would have gone down.

    I thought it was 352 or have I missed something?

    Disappointing no game time for Doucoure, Deulofeu or Scullion.

    Judging by the number of minutes Success has played pre-season, gracia must be seriously thinking of putting him in the 25 man squad :eek:

    Because like most people on here I was hoping we would be bringing in a LOT better, unless he has improved one hell of a lot on what he has shown so far for WFC :rolleyes:

    Well, yeah? Why would he play him otherwise? Was a decent player till his ego got to him and went off the rails a bit.

    I don't think there's any doubting the lad has potential and some talent. Went off the rails last year, and I always thought he looked out of shape/unfit for a winger. Haven't caught the Pre Season games, but has he trimmed down at all?

    Yes, that is why most it on here is utter ********.
    It does not matter in the long term.
    Bill Shankly once said " Football is a matter of life or death, except more important. What a sack of 5hit that is.
    Watford lose, l am pissed off for 30 mins or so, then so what comes to mind. It does not matter that much.

    Is that Oulare at 0:59 in this new training video?!

    That's Kabasele, he just for some reason looks a great deal darker skinned that he usually does. Must have gone on holiday to the Love Island villa or something.

    Gray hit and miss as usual in front of goal ?!

    Couple of great saves by Foster there .

    Doucourae and Chalobah training at least then .

    Really? I didn't know he was that much taller than Mariappa either.

    Did Shankly really use the term "sack of 5hit"? Was he really pissed off after Watford lose?
     
  26. Chumlax

    Chumlax Squad Player

    I initially thought it was anyway, but just for evidentiary purposes I checked the squad numbers before I posted, it's definitely him. Kabasele is 6'2'' and Mariappa is literally like 5'10'', extremely short for a Prem centre back, so it stands to reason. Plus, he's closer to the camera....

    Apologies - I'm just congratulating myself on getting an O-Level in Pedantry - it's necessary to get this qualification before sitting the entrance exam for the Grammar Police induction course.

    Liked for 'catastrophising'; it's a good word and I shall attempt to worm it into as many posts as possible this season - although I'm very tempted to spell it with a 'z'. Z's are good.

    If only the Watford management took such care of the details in their running of the club and transfer dealings.
