Watford Fc 1-2 Doncaster Rovers - 26/08/2014 - League Cup 2nd Round

Who starts then?

Will we see Dyer, McGugan, Ranegie or Murray?

Give Vydra a run around after he missed last week or rest him for the league and let Fessi and Ighalo start?

Is Pudil going to start every game because I don't think we have any other left backs?

 

Beppe can not leave Fessi out of the starting line up. Unless he's not fit.

If McBoo & Dyer don't get a run out then that might say something about the rumours.

 

Bond
Dyer
Hoban
Tamas
Doyley
Anya
McGugan
Andrews
Murray
Ighalo
Ranegie

 

Bond
Doyley Hoban Angella
Anya Murray Andrews McGugan Dyer
Ranegie Vydra​

Although if all of the rumours are true...

Bond
Doyley Hoban Angella
Anya Murray Andrews Munari Pudil
Ighalo Vydra​

 

I hope between them in the meantime since last Tuesday that Sannino and Dyer have both been man enough to sit down over a plate of digestives to iron out their issues and agree to move on from here.

 

If there's no Dyer or McGugan then I would be wondering if they'll ever play for us again.

Having said that, I expect them both to start.

 

I think we can say with 100% certainty that anyone who doesn't start tonight has fallen out with Beppe

 

Would like to see smith or Doherty start for a change but I'm going

Bond
Doyley, Hoban, ekstrand
Anya
Tozser, Murray, fabbrini
Pudil
Ighalo, vydra

 

Anya and Pudil are well out of position.

 

I guess the most interesting part of this fixture is whether Dyer or McGoo play.

Bond
Doyley Hoban Tamas Anya
Murray Andrews McGugan Dyer
Ighalo Vydra

Subs to come on: Renegie, Fessi, Cathcart

 

Or HobNobs

 

My prediction for the game: It will be cold, it will be wet, it will be nowhere near a sell-out, it will go to extra time (purely cos it will be cold + it will be wet).

 

I reckon we'll see a return to the 4-4-2 tonight with Hoban starting at left back.

Bond
Doyley Angella Tamas Hoban
Anya Munari Andrews Fabrinni
Forestieri Vydra​

Subs: Gilmartin, Parades, Pudil, Abdi, Tozser, Ranegie, Ighalo

I'm assuming that McGugan and Dyer WON'T be involved due to the rumours. I'd like to see them play in the team but I'm not going to be shocked either way. I also wouldn't be shocked to see Forestieri on the bench despite his performance on Saturday.

3-0 Watford. Vydra x 2 & Angella.

 

Anyone know if Fishers car park will be open? Only just started driving to games and it's by far the most convenient for me.

 

Bond
Doyley Tamas Cathcart
Anya McGugan Andrews Murray Dyer
Ighalo Vydra

Unless McG/Dyer refuse to play in which case:

Bond
Doyley Tamas Cathcart Doherty
Fabbrini Andrews Murray Anya
Ighalo Vydra

 

I thought Cathcart wasn't fit enough to start tonight despite returning to training.

 

This is true.

 

3331 formation for a change

 

My FIFA Predicts...

Watford 2 - 1 Doncaster

55' - Vydra - The goalkeeper has possession just outside of his box, Vydra tackles him and passes it into an empty net
80' - Robinson - Robinson volleys in at the back post from a cross
102' - Anya - A great header from the back post after a cross from Ranegie

Watford substitutions:
67' - Munari off/Tozser on
90' - Forestieri off/Ranegie on
105' - Vydra off/Ighalo on

Man of the match: Jonathan Bond

Odds: Vydra FGS and 2-1 @33/1

 

I think that is one of the first FIFA predictions that I could actually believe.

 

THE TEAMS: #watfordfc v Doncaster: Bond; Doyley (c), Tamas, Hoban; Anya, McGugan, Andrews, Murray, Dyer; Ighalo, Vydra



SUBS: #watfordfc v Doncaster: Gilmartin (GK), Munari, Angella, Pudil, Fabbrini, Doherty, Byers


Bye bye, Troy.

 

Except Anya heading in a Ranegie cross. FIFA has clearly got mixed up.

 

Not a bad side considering it's got nine changes to Saturday. The bench is kind of underwhelming, though.

 

And Forestieri + Ranegie, fml we're gonna have no strikers.

 

No idea of what to make of the "situation" at Watford now. McGugan and Dyer both start only missing player is Ranegie, despite being fit and not have a "stronger" striker on the bench.

 

Get in!

 

Was Troy involved in the last game at all? I don't remember him being in the squad. Same as last season but was in for the Norwich cup game.

 

Troy's definitely gone. He's always involved in this competition, even when he was playing and commentating at the same time.

 

I genuinely think we can this this game if everyone sticks to the plan.

 

Clearest sign yet that CB is going out on loan!!

 

Troy hasn't been subbed in any of our league games so far? So he's played 3 full games I'm the last 11 days. Seems fair enough to rest him.

 

Dyer and McGugan both start

Looks like DyerGate has blown over and Vicarage Road is awash with peace , love and harmony.

Really please that FF isnt involved at all as it means he will likely start on Sarturday. Fully deserved for that immense performance against Leeds and the brilliant attitude when not playing.

 

A good thing to rest Forestieri for Huddersfield, they don't like him and he'll run rings round them. Could he even keep Vydra out of the team?

 

He's come a long way from that petulant "sitting on his arse and refusing to move in the penalty box" incident
