Watford FC 0-0 AFC Bournemouth - 26/10/2019

i think that horrible feeling may be based on reality

 

I thought Welbeck was playing the Chalobah role

 

Sarr not even on the bench. Welbeck being dissected for medical science. Our summer window was fuxking diabolical.

Come on Moog, hardly fair, Dawson's playing!

 

Dawson who played ok last match, but otherwise has been one of the worst defenders I've seen since Mark Watson.

Directors of football in future years will be asked the question "how do you spend the best part of 50m on a mid table side, not lose any key players, but still make them substantially worse?"


The Giraldi Conundrum.

Wow. Swear filter is editing out the nationalist name of your country.

Good point, though we're playing with two false 9s today so it seems that there's the possibility of trying multiple players in the same position.

 

If we go behind, who will be out of the stadium quicker than me?

At least he could blame it on being Canadian, I mean, a Canadian footballer, whatever next.

 

"Canadian Defender of the Year" no less.

Why are they announcing subs first?

I'm already in the pub.

 

QSF gotta be happy with that. Half way to the desired result. If we can keep our good fortune in the second half we could end up with another great 0 -0.

 

Absolutely rancid.

We won't win a game this season. We are actually diabolical.

 

Lost count of the times we had a break on, running at their defence and made a terrible decision. Two winnable home games, both 0-0. That's not going to keep us up...

 

We're a footballing brain short of being a decent side. Decision making in the final third very poor.

Probably lucky to draw in the end. It was a must win game, really. Are we the worst team in the division? No. But if you can't win games then you get relegated.

 

We are comfortably the worst team in the division.

 

We'd drawn 6 of our previous 8 PL matches against Bournemouth, so drawing with them again in what was a very even game can hardly be called "diabolical".

We're certainly doing better than we were at the start of the season - we've stopped shipping goals and have turned defeats in to draws. We're lacking in fire power now though to turn those draws in to wins.

The biggest question mark for me today was the decision to take off Masina for Foulquier, I'm not the biggest Masina fan but Foulquier is absolutely abysmal, and he was just nonchalantly jogging around after having only been on the pitch for 5 minutes.

 

I don’t get it. Surrender possession at home to both SU and now Bournemouth. Hang on for a 0-0 draw. Is that really the plan ?

 

That’s about the best result we could have hoped for from that game given we weren’t going to score.

I hate playing with 5 at the back. There’s nothing really to hope for. We should have gone all out against Sheff Utd and Bournemouth.

 

Seriously, we've no pace up front, no one with a decent first touch, no one looking to penetrate so the answer is Andre fecking Gray.

QSF went for the draw after 70 minutes, he sat Doucoure deep which meant give it to Perreyra or Deulofeu and do something with no support.

Give Sarr a run, let him find his feet, at least he'll push their defenders back.

Absolute dogsh!t, we're sleepwalking to relegation.

 

Club now need redress the balance & look at offensive/striking tactics more than the defensive issues.

This is the core issue with QSF management & it always has been. You get one end better significantly at the expense of the other & it shows. Badly.

 

3 games unbeaten. Terrific stuff against a tough Bouremouth team. Lets carry this momentum forward into the next game. First wins around the corner ladies and gents. I can feel it in my undergarments. Kabasele terrific, Masina composed. GD and RP always a threat, amazing we didnt get at least one goal. Foster was back to his best as well. Jumpers for goalposts, last on MOTD.

 

We haven't won in 14 Premier League games. We cannot beat the "lesser" teams of the league at home. We are comfortably bottom of the league. We are diabolical.

 

Looks like we're going to meekly accept relegation. Why can't we score at the moment? (I didn't follow the game today but guessing we played for that?)

 

We had chances to win

Defensively much much better than under the gurning idiot

Our attack is toothless though and confidence is on the floor

We are desperate for a win

 

Drab game really in bad conditions. Just glad not to lose at the end.

Foster made a couple of very good saves but so did their keeper.

Dawson seems to be settling in now. Defence had a pretty good game all round apart from losing their man for that header that hit the bar in the 1st half.

Hughes tried hard, but looked rusty.

Pererya did very well I thought. Our motm for me, just edging out foster. He's much more combative in the tackle recently.

What upset that littleshit Wilson towards the end? He seemed very miffed with janmaat.

 

I didn't initially subscribe to that theory. I assumed we would have scraped a 1-0 setting up defensively. Am now starting to doubt the way QSF is setting up. A win in either of those games would see us in a better position. We can't 0-0 our way to safety.

 

Foster good
Defence pretty good
Midfield not bad. (apart from Hughes , I don’t often criticise him but sloppy passing today)
Attack complete lack of threat lt looked better when Gray came on, but not a lot better

We are missing something vital , I don’t think it’s passion or desire the team looked like they were trying , but none of the passes / flicks / tricks worked

I feel deflated we have to win at some point

 

Ta. Belatedly!
