    BBC has 442 with Sarr on the left. Clevs on the right.

    Sky’s coverage peddling the same line as others - that Gray just needs a goal for the floodgates to open.

    They really don’t watch him play do they?

    Also correctly saying we don’t score enough goals - but saying all our strikers are ‘class’. I give up.

    Think the Stokies scored all their goals from crosses from the right the other night (well I remember 1 and I cant be bothered to check) so I guess Hughes will be asked to stop crosses.

    While we're on the subject (well sort of), of sh1t1est places, I nominate the hellhole that was (and probably still is) Plumstead in South London which I had to commute to and endure for 4 years in the early 90s. Mid-90s I was working in Bloomsbury in Central London, a stunning location. Talk about chalk and cheese.

    Another 90 minutes of Sarr crossing to no one is in store for us again.

    Kinell, I'd rather Hughes on the flank than Cleverley!

    Fitting into a supersub role hopefully.

    If it is Deeney up top on his own, it's imperative Sarr / Pedro get up alongside him as much as possible. Do that and it could be a nice formation for us. But if Deeney gets isolated up there... We know how that's going to end.
    Would like to see more of Zinc at some point...

    Are we sure it's not 4-3-3 morphing into a 4-3-1-2 on the counter.

    Deeney drops into the number 10, one of the wingers (Pedro & Sarr) make an inverted run and the CM on that side provides the width, one hugs the touchline and keeps Stoke defence guessing whilst the 2nd of the 3rd CM's pushes forward.

    I just realised whilst typing that, who cares!

    I lived on the grand union canal for 18 months. Brilliant time but soooo cold in the winter.

    Looks as strong a Stoke side as they can field. Got our work cut out.

    Yes now knowing it’s a 433 it’s a little less frustrating about that, although I would’ve loved to see Zinckernagel today.

    When Pedro was benched after scoring someone on here said it was because we had 3 games in a week.

    Do these rules not count for Troy then?

    Anyway disappointing no Zinc swapping in for Kenneth. Hopefully 4-3-3 as people are saying, and it’s all down to Sarr and Pedro to attack the back post because no-one will be attacking the front one, or the 6 yard box, or penalty spot, or the edge of the box, or.....

    Well this little experiment has failed.

    Play people in their positions for crying out loud.

    Clevs right mid and Sarr left mid isn’t working. Seems odd to need to when we have zinc on the bench.

    Already feels like a typical away game .

    Flat , boring and predictable.

    That was terrible. Typical Ivic football that. Better change something in the second, I’d bring on zinc straight away.

    Enjoying watching Kiko and Pedro but the rest of it is dull dull dull.

    Sarr needs a top coach to get him to use that speed and talent he has - such a waste at the moment.

    Awful. But we are away. Lucky not to be behind, changes needed at HT, and we look scared of them, hardly moving forward.

    Very very flimsy.
    I have no idea why we were allowing so many crosses.
    Need to up the tempo but I fear we will have someone sent off,ref is card crazy.
    Having said that nailed on penalty.
    I'd take a point now but I'm not optimistic.
    Buck up Watford!

    Usual away game .

    Maybe it’s the mindset of the players to play in a negative way ?
