Watford 1-1 West Ham Utd (25/02/17)

[arlhe]

Should have won that. Another good performance, after giving that unnecessary penalty.

No Antonio for the Chelsea game is a major blow.

Agree Lanzini central he's so sharp & clever, team should be built around him. Noble is a waste of space, passenger & anonymous as Capt/Leader sorry but I just gotta say it. We can play 442 without him in the lineup imo

[-DL-]

Noble played him on by being a statue

You're being a doofus. Please stop it.

[Ifebbubbles]

Considering we have no striker and no right back that is a decent enough result. Will take that

We have strikers and right backs, we just don't use any of them

[Upton Carp]

Phew! This 'helmet' is well relieved....

before you call peeps names.

[Junco Partner]

7 points behind WBA now, not sure we can catch them tbh.

[Aceface]

Antonio was the best player on the park, not Lanzini. God knows what he was thinking chucking his arm at the ball though.

Feghouli's starting to look really, really good.

[Yea Why Not]

Thought the ref was decent today personally. Got just about every important decision correct imo

Really good team performance that away from home. Completely bossed it

[brooking1966]

You're being a doofus. Please stop it.

Your blind, watch the play from the last corner he stands in the same spot for about 5 seconds playing success onside.

Aside from the first 10 minutes we totally dominated that game, was embarrassing how much possession we had and how ****ing negative Watford were - and had Antonio been less honest we should have had 2 pens, Kouyate was also a nailed on, Niang knew he'd lost the foot race and held him back. The ref booked 2 of ours for first time offences yet 2 or 3 Watford players committed several snidey fouls yet didn't get booked.

Daylight robbery and the ref yet again tried to spoil the game with some one sided decisions.

My girlfrield just gave her verdict: Troy Deeney is the ugliest footballer in the league.

[MadMart]

imagine how good we'd be if we started with a recognised Premier League quality striker... or even Championship level striker... no other club would not have a recognised striker in their starting 11, time after ****ing time....

[Ifebbubbles]

Troy Deeney - Watford had the best of the first half LOL

[Aceface]

The one thing that characterises Bilic's reign is the inability to play well in the first half. Last season, this season - we always play better in the second half. It's a blight on his management.

[Wilko1304]

Fonte very good today.

Think Ayew's instincts to score goals might be important as we have a lot of players who are more about the pretty stuff and creating over just looking at where a goal comes from.

Is that his hair or has he had a WW2 german stormtroopers helmet tattooed on his head?

Or is it a testimony to his half time team talks?

Although we were the better team in the first half. And had a few chances too.

[Johnny Byrne's Boots]

Given how much better we play with Lanzini central and Snodgrass on the wing, why do we start with them swapped and only fix it at half time?

[Bernie_Lama]

despite bossing possession and looking the better side we didn't win. Cheap goal to give away and got lucky he missed at the end. We've got character and spirit and got back into the game but we are so vulnerable in defence. We equalised and then looked wide open at the back. How much of this is players out of position due to obvious shortages or poor management with tactics and formation only time will tell but I really hope it's the former
