Watford 0-3 Liverpool: In game and Post Match discussion

Which is why its a sh*te excuse

It was a comment, not an excuse.

Keira or Fabinho for Henderson or Wijnaldum, or both at half time for me.

What are Henderson and Gini not doing that Keira and Fabinho can do? What do we give up if Hendo and Gini were replaced?

Tried about 20 streams but no bloody joy :-(

Henderson:

Pathetic game overall, we continue where we left before the international break. Shaq at least tries something, but we lack any creativity or scripted plays. This team will go nowhere.

stopped working

Think he meant it's a sh*t excuse banded about after internationals to excuse poor performances in a general way.

Not as a smartarse comment to you.

we are lacking silva/bernardo type of midfielders..thats the difference

Any streams ?

This..

forget title, Man City is on another level.

let's just win this get top 3 and win the FA cup. Our midfield still look mediocre and our front 3 don't look as good as they were last season.

Keira or Fabinho for Henderson or Wijnaldum, or both at half time for me.

Right you pair, Who’s Keira?.. 😂

More penetration from the midfield, more drive and a much more attack minded set up in my opinion.

Both of them seem to be turning back a bit too much for my liking.

Haha Keira Knightly think she'd do a better job today too haha

That's true. More killer passes needed but have been seeing safe back passes all day.

Still don't think bobby behind salah is working. No support for trent who always has to look inside. Presorting to too many long balls

Don't need a Henderson type player today, would sub him for Fab' Milner or Keita

What do we give up if Hendo and Gini were replaced?

We give up someone who does more pointing than creating,  we give up constant backward passes, we give up someone who seems to panic when anyone is within 3 steps from him.  The list goes on.

Typical game after an international break, bit disjointed but I still fancy us to win this, perhaps bring on Keita for Gini and Sturridge later on if needed.

Story of that half was a packed defence by Watford. Sitting so deep, it will take a bit of brilliance to get thru. Disappointed in TAA, he isn't supporting Shag down that right hand side. Mo maybe should be switching with Shaq, mix it up a bit.In short.....do something..

Not working. Hardly see Bobby in action today.

It's because the fullbacks are pushed so far up, we're sacrificing the middle for attacking width, but we still want at least 3 defenders, which is why Henderson joins the 2 CB's so it looks like 3 at the back, and Wijnaldum as well at time, which looks like a flat 4 but has 2 CM.

If we take 1 of Shaqiri or Firmino off, and put Keita on, we would have a runner from deep, to help out, as both Shaqiri and Firmino are mobbed every time they get the ball to stop them from breaking the lines with runs.

That's true. More killer passes needed but have been seeing safe back passes all day.

Yep it's been boring as F**k so far. I don't know if it's how Watford are set or just our mids not fancying it today.

But I'd definitely change one if not both to see if it makes any difference.

People are moaning about the front 3 but look at what they're feeding off. The final ball from the midfield is none existent.

They're resigned to chasing long punts off the defence.

Hendo looks as if he has lost about 6 pounds, cutting out those visits to the chippy.
