Happy with the Hull/ Boro draw. Southampton only need 1pt to secure the play-offs so may take their foot off the gas in a week's time. West Brom will be saving players for the P/O's on the final day. Maybe Leicester will have wrapped up the league by the second to last game too if they pull their finger out. All three are welcome to play the U18s against us.
Frustrating night. Looked knackered, but ended up just being one of those games when the ball just wouldn't go in the net. Watford played a low block for all but 15 minutes and seemed to play for the draw which we're not good at playing against. Hopefully we can beat Boro, then we have a 2 week break to recover. When Watford attacked us after the break they looked a really good side, but the rest of the game was just sitting back mostly, with the occasional counter-attack. They do look like a perfect counter-attacking side though, with a massive and very good defence, with quick attackers.
That's us likely safe now, big win. We have got Rotherham on the weekend where we can make sure. Plenty of work to do in the summer though, and I imagine there'd be a fair few in and out with the change back in style of football.
Yes got away with it a bit in the first half but grew into the game after the break getting more confident. Cleverley had gone to 3 at the back which is different and we seem to do ok with it. Probably do need more of a focal point up front next season. Another Troy Deeney!
We've just got to hope we can find one of those out of nowhere decent performances like we did against Hull after the disaster against Norwich. Because last night was as bad as it gets.
No problem we haven't won away for about 18 months. I you're struggling a bit just get somebody to shoot at one of our player's heads outside the box, shout handball and the ref is under league orders to give a penalty. If not put one in with an elbow, it's a goal all day long.
