subs: Vorm, Carter-Vickers, Davies, Dembele, Winks, Sissoko, Janssen

Will Dier drop to a back 3 -5-2 or is it 4-2-3-1
Not been sure with dier/wanyama midfield combo before,but dele&eriksen are playing well and Son scoring so,makes sense.And a nicely rested dembele for the chavs !!

 

[Don Diaz]

Son over Sissoko.....interesting. Bring it on, just win lads.

 

[conor1]

Not sure what way we'll line out that XI. Guessing we'll go 3 at the back with Rose and Trippier pushing on. Having said that its very adaptable

 

[skiathospurs]

#watfordfc XI v Spurs: Gomes (GK); Kaboul, Prödl, Cathcart; Zúñiga, Capoue, Guedioura, Holebas; Amrabat, Doucouré; Deeney (c).
subs v Spurs: Pantilimon (GK), Sinclair, Ighalo, Kabasele, Mason, Stewart, Rowan.

[Ted the Yid]

Well that's going to confuse the Watford manager, is Dier CB or DM?

Games like this are hopefully going to highlight Dier's worth in playing duel roles as Poch can change formation and style without even making a sub.

 

[conor1]

Just listened to Pochettino being interviewed by Geoff Shreeves, understood every word of it. Which is more than I can say about Carragher having also just listened to him.

 

[conor1]

Ok lads and lasses, see you at the other side.

Zuniga didnt make it through the warm up so Ighalo starts

 

[Don Diaz]

Cameron Carter Vickers 19 yesterday.....

 

[skiathospurs]

Bloody marvellous eh!!Trippier putting the pressure on kyle.
Harry new year lads!!!

 

[Don Diaz]

I don't often post mid match, and I know that Watford have a host of injury problems but that was exhibition football of the highest order....just beautiful to watch, fantastic performances all over the pitch. If we get 20 mins more in the second half Poch can rest whoever he wants and give Janssen, CCV and Winks more game time.

Brilliant way to start 2017 so far....no complacency or injuries please lads.

 

[boo]

Missed the first ten minutes getting home, switched on and Alli smacks the woodwork. Then BOOM! Happy New Year!

 

[boo]

PS, screw Sky Sports!

 

[skiathospurs]

Told you they`d need a priest !!

Sumptuous performance so far,I`d get broadway and kane off and then who else wants half hour off before the chavs?So Davies on,janssen on and winksy on.
Perfect so far.

 

[deejbah]

Eriksen seems to have put himself about a bit more in this match.

 

[skiathospurs]

 

[Yid]

Fuck me is Mike Dean refereeing again....???

COYS.....

 

[Don Diaz]

Have our travelling army stopped singing ever during this game....bloody brilliant support again

 

[skiathospurs]

,I`d get broadway and kane off and then who else wants half hour off before the chavs?So Davies on,janssen on and winksy on.
Perfect so far.

Eh,eh eh !!!!

 

[skiathospurs]

I am gonna say 1-4 and throw in a kaboul OG just for a giggle.

Eh,eh eh !!
Fuck it im on a roll arsenal 1 palace 3

 

[boo]

Janssen on earlier I would have thought but still, eight goals in our last two games. Bring on the Chavs!

 

[Don Diaz]

Shame for Hugo, but brilliant for the lads in terms of confidence and momentum before Chelsea. Third in the league for the moment, great game by Trippier. Full steam ahead for 2017 year of the Cock.....lol

Janssen on earlier I would have thought but still, eight goals in our last two games. Bring on the Chavs!

not bad for our number one match negative Impressive couple of games,if we can do the same to chelsea.....game on!!

 

[Don Diaz]

Eriksen had another good game I thought, I expect Sissoko against Chelsea rather than Son?

 

[Havocc]

Great start to the year, thought it would be 8 in the end.....

 

[skiathospurs]

Great start to the year, thought it would be 8 in the end.....

We showed mercy,last 45mins we just managed the game,which I can take with the chav game in 3 days time,which is now huge in terms of opening up the league.

 

[conor1]

How good were we today ffs.. Excellent all over the pitch and a big shout out to Trippier. His assists today were absolutely top drawer. Again the impressive thing for me, was our temperament, winning when we had to win to keep us in the race. Also we held our nerve when Watford decided to get a bit nasty with a few of their tackles. Glad we didn't stoop to their level.
What a start to the year!!!

 

[Finchbee]

Wonder if anything was said to Kaboul....lol

Brilliant performance in conditions that were not the best! Now to the chavs
