It's actually even bigger because as Dan pointed out at least Deulofeu is also missing 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,940 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Just can't see us keeping a clean sheet against anyone with our back line as it is, even if we do manage to get a keeper in (hasn't been the biggest problem in our defence by any stretch of the imagination) so we have to score at least 2 to win this one in my opinion. Couple of saving graces will be that watford will be readjusting and are missing pretty much a premier league starting 11 due to various issues. Going with a horrible to watch 1-1. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Foster in goal, Dawson, Kabasele, Cathcart, WIlmot for defence, Chalobah and Cleverley in midfield, Suarez, Perica and Murray as forwards. I know they're missing a few real game-changers but pretty much any of those players would improve our team. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I think we have to go 352 in the absence of wide players. I'd imagine he'll pick his strongest XI on paper, so the Ballyclare Beckenbauer will come back into defence. Quote What will the scoreline be and who scores if any? We're live on Sky, so I expect a dull 1-1, with Fletcher scoring for us and a midfielder netting for them. Quote Will we have signed any new players before the game and will they be involved in the squad for this particular game? Hopefully Bettinelli, but otherwise I doubt we'll have anyone across the line in time. Quote Are you confident, that Warnock will get the maximum out of his players, and we can compete in this league? I am absolutely certain we won't be battling relegation. Warnock is a master at making the most of limited resources, and as I said recently on the transfer thread, many of our players would be considered high-end Championship quality if we hadn't had to endure several years of Pulis anti-football and Woodgate what-is-football. The fact Warnock dragged four successive away wins out of a demoralised and leggy squad almost overnight shows how talented he is. I think promotion is beyond us, but I'd be very surprised if we aren't top half assuming he lasts the season out. Link to post Share on other sites

If Shrewsbury can put 3 past us, its guaranteed Watford will manage a couple...unless they are misfiring as badly as we think they might. In which case, we can depend on them getting a scrappy stoppage time winner. 😉 Link to post Share on other sites
Redcar Rioja 5,975 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 The spirit at least (if not the ability) in our camp seems high at the moment and full of drive. Conversely the spirit in the Hornets camp seems lower than a snakes belly. It's almost unbelievable that a club starts the season with so many players injured or missing for whatever reason, in fact it just doesn't add up. If it was Boro it would be taking the "Typical Boro" derision to a new level. Link to post Share on other sites

ElDaftardo 50 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 I don't know why and i'm most likely going to be wrong haha but I'm thinking we will win 2-1 with Marcus Browne scoring the winner from the bench in the 89th minute.... Link to post Share on other sites

Smogzilla 7,484 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Be interesting to see if Luis Suarez (not that one) starts for them. Got 19 goals in 38 games for Zaragoza on loan in La liga 2 last season. Could be a dangerous player at this level. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
