    Put some good corners in and Sarr was was very unlucky with a headed chance from one of them

    Was a fairly standard Sema performance, although his set piece deliveries were mostly very impressive.

    Spot on. Fewer of his ‘barge everyone out of the way and cross from the byline’ opportunities today but his set pieces were definitely more dangerous throughout.

    Joint highest assists in the Championship. No doubt he's not good enough for the Prem, but great at this level

    Unavailable again for the weekend. Of course a tight hamstring seems to have turned into a bigger problem.

    Fallen into the same inter-dimensional rift that Cleverley did. We’ll never see him again.

    Why would we potentially risk him by making him available for a pointless cup game when he's only just coming back from injury anyway?!

    Yeah judging by what he said the other day, a lot of them will be back for Blackpool. Absolutely zero point chucking any of them back in against Reading

    Probably holding out for a deserved move back to the prem. Rumours that Man U are sniffing around.

    Is having Sema unavailable a long term problem?

    Seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth.

    We really do miss his directness and crossing

    Yeah.

    Where is the King?
    Presume it’s a hamstring.
    Or is it a bruising,
    Or something else niggling,
    Or did he just sin
    And get disciplined?
    I’m in a spin
    For the return of the King

    This is the power of Ken. The first player to inspire me to poetry. I use the term ‘inspire’ loosely. Love you Ken.

    And you use the term “poetry” loosely.




    Apologies for my meanness. I haven’t read poetry since secondary school (many decades ago), so I am no expert!

    Good point.
    Where is he?
    Has he been chatting with Hause and all his limbs have fallen off?

    Got injured v Millwall it seems.

    Was just a doubt for the Swansea game and not been seen since.

    More on the ball work from the medics. Doubt for the Swansea game? Actually on second thoughts not available for 4 games and no idea when he'll be back.

    The opposite of Sarr, always putting himself about, you don't buy a ticket, you don't win the lottery!

    He was everywhere tonight, scored two could of had a third. I know he gets stick from some, but he always gives 110% and tries each game. Certainly one to keep whatever division we end up in next season.

    Just seen the interview with King Ken on the official website. How long has he been a Watford player? It must be his first ever interview as he has a really pronounced stammer. I never knew that about him before. Makes me love him even more.

    One of our most consistent players, and he is very versatile too. I agree with Skyla we should keep him even if we do go up, as he would still be a good squad member especially with his versatility.

    An effective, hardworking player who gets results.

    If it was a choice between losing Sarr or Sema in the summer I'd be keeping King Ken all day long.

    He was one of my favourite players in the squad before that interview yesterday but now he is top of the list.

    What an absolute inspiration he is. Like others I never knew he had a stammer and actually had never heard him speak before but he followed up his excellent performance with a top notch interview to boot. Somewhere out there, a young kid with a stammer will see that interview and think if he can do it then I can.

    Brilliant stuff.

    I am less upset now that they unretired Sir Lloyd of Doyley's shirt number.

    No. You seem to be infatuated in playing players out of position

    I’m glad Ken Is getting the love he deserves. As I’ve said before if he hadn’t joined us in the premier league and only played championship football , he would be an unequivocal hero amongst our fans .

    The reality is he was signed to replace Richarlison. Pretty sure most of Everton's squad would be getting big love from their fans if they had been signed as championship players?

    The thing in his favour is he is patient, has a good attitude and happy to sit out large parts of the season while we thrash around the premier league but he's pretty average.
     
  33. wfc4ever

    wfc4ever Administrator Staff Member

    Yes lacks the pace for the Premier league but does seem to come up with an assist or goal in the Championship.
     
  34. UEA_Hornet

    I think he's a slightly above average Championship wide attacker to be honest, but certainly not able to bridge the gap to PL standard.

    Was he actually, or was he merely signed as a squad option? It's not as if he was a regular in his first season under Gracia, and then left on loan the next season as we didn't really have a place in the team for him
