This is almost certainly the most must-win game of the season. Until the next one, of course.
Failure to beat this flatlining Watford side will result in more doom and gloom than anyone will know what to do with.
Make no mistake, Watford are poor.
Watford are winless after eight Premier League games this season (D3 L5) – only in 2006-07 (10), 1990-91 (9) and 1984-85 (9) have they had a longer winless start in any of their previous league campaigns.
Since beating Arsenal 2-1 in January 2017, Watford have lost 16 consecutive Premier League away games against ‘big six’ opponents, scoring just nine goals and conceding 53 in return.
Watford have won just one of their 12 Premier League meetings with Spurs (D3 L8), with that win coming at Vicarage Road in September 2018.
For me, Eriksen cannot start, for numerous reasons, the most important of which is that he’s been too dull to warrant a starting place. Tell me, in his current form funk, what top side would the Dane walk into?
Sonny will be on the bench, and so Last Goalscorer @4/1 appeals.
We should be in a dog fight at the bottom but we are 7th and aside from top 2 we are not out of touch.
Hmmm….no link, no response. I watched the radio 5 and sky interviews and read all the quotes and found nothing about the week in week out racism. So why are people coming on here with an affronting attitude and making things up?
How is the EPL a joke? So city and pool are doing it at the moment that doesn’t mean they can’t be toppled (they will when klop and pep leave. United Chelsea and arsenal were all the talk a few years back. The city and pool of today. The EPL isn’t the SPL. Big clubs all over this county waiting to pounc£. Who’s to say Newcastle with a new oil owner wouldn’t do a city. Leicest£r will come strong. wolves can. Sheffield united could win the league in the next five years. Pep could even bring Everton some glory in 4 years time. A Russian mafia man with billions could buy QPR. Some super rich yanky Leeds united fan could buy Leeds. An Indian steel man could buy forest. The English leagues are brilliant. If any top side has an off day and a Norwich comes along with a good plan and has a on day the top teams will get beat. “The premiere league is rigged” The FA decide who’s gonna win the league each year. Uefa decide who’s gonna win the champions league. I’ve never heard such shit. Chairman managers and players and refs involved too along with the VAR people. People actually believe this shit.
And where does Levy and ENIC fit into all off this? Just innocent bystanders I take it?
Poch is starting to be a tad disrespectful..”its only football problems”…..easy for you to say that when fans have a long trip home and are £150 out of pocket…its ok, I’m sure the fans appreciate the tapless beer, ha Levy!!
The epl is a joke , outside of the top two it’s mediocre at best .
Can you link me that cos I’ve read all the Boro bosses comments and I can’t find a reference to that week in week out racism quote. What you have is a situation where a teams losing and will have the ability to walk off by accusing someone of racism. There will be twats everywhere, a tiny minority, what you don’t do is give your power away by allowing them to dictate proceedings. That Sterling episode at Chelsea, where he was supposed to be racially abused?, Well lip readers at the trail determined the bloke said “manc c%t”. So here we have another inflamed racial incident where it seems nobody heard anything except a couple of players. They couldn’t comment as It’s all ‘alleged’ at the moment. They will be charged if found so we will see, this is setting a dangerous precident though.
Get that dope Poch out ASAP! Get aurier out too! Both cbs are finito verts and Toby!
Honestly…I think we are lucky how bad some teams are this year. We have been crap… Yet still top half. Teams like Watford and Newcastle will struggle to top 30 points this season.
“Which goes along with the week that’s just occurred” ?? What exactly do you mean? What sort of bollocks talk is this? Did you hear the interview with the Haringey Manager? About how his team experiences racism week in week out from Neanderthals posing as football fans? Do you even know what’s going on here? Fair play to Haringey for standing up to racism.
Are we too good to go down?
We lost 3-0 to a team that can’t score. Almost lost to a team that have not won all season (they should have won 2-0 if not for VAR ripping them off) and now we head to the home of arguably the most dangerous side in Europe that are getting more luck than you can shake a stick at. Even in full song I wouldn’t fancy our chances…I just hope it’s on BT sport and gazza (on here) is right.
We are now closer to relegation than top 4… We have Liverpool away next… This won’t get better.
Words actually fail me. There’s nothing left at our club. The soul has been ripped out of it. Manager, players, fans…. the lockers empty
He responded to their racial abuse. Majority of yeovil fans were kool.
Our flame of passion has burned out. Our Players love us but are not in love with us
A new blog during the game…poor show!
I honestly wouldn’t even be that generous..I think we are just not good enough anymore to be in a position to be shit…
Fucking divs
That’s bizarre considering Yeovil have 3 or 4 black players.
So. We were shit then. Never saw the game.
Disgusting, idiots, give them six months to think about things, might put manners on them.
Fuckry scenes at Coles park earlier. FA cup. Haringey vs yeovil. The yeovil racist cunts racially abusing our keeper. Game called off. 🎼 we’ll see you in the fucking car park. Shat them selves
Today should make it obvious to all how poor we have become, it really looks as though the players momentum and belief in the Poch mentality/philosophy is wearing thin , and clear to see through the performance of “Danny, Danny Rose” , why play players who do not care?
didnt think spurs were THAT bad,just nothing much at all up front…except for son for a short spell. watford were quite good solid defence and a bit of imagination up front….alli should be playing for the under 23’s ..preferabley at nuneaton f.c or somewhere…dunno why he took winks off..i think its more to do with the manager and less to do with the players.
Well we made Watford into looking like world beaters they showed far more desire and tenacity than we did .Get the old guard on the bench I would rather give the youngsters a chance ok they might not win ,but once they have climatised their self it might be a different scenario.some of the players today definitely didn’t want to be playing the only desire I saw was from sonny and he has clocked some air miles this week .You can’t buy desire and a willingness to work this squad is stale at best.
We did not loose. Botch is a busted flush. If he does have a deal with 666 to leave , in the Summer , then its Spursy .
How the begeebus is this team still 7th??
How rubbish are Watford, couldn’t even beat us.
Aurier will try and swing this one in, a poor ball, well I’m astonished by that.
Gonna find a good Brexit discussion to cheer myself up.
Apalling is the right word.
Dele, in classic form has been appalling all game but pops up with a goal and will now be lauded as being great. Lamela and Ndombele (also Son) have looked decent.
Goal.
Goal. No goal.
Can’t even get VAR right.
Don’t know how some of these “players” can look Poch in the eye. A lot of them have gone well down in my estimation. He’s made nearly every one a better player, made a lot of them into internationals. Despicable.
This lot wouldn’t get out of the Championship, that’s how good they’re playing.
A simple ball goes over Danny Rose’s head, mmm, now where I have heard that before?
Mid match blog…..you know it’s bad with a mid match blog….🤕
So does Kane submit transfer request Monday or wait until Jan 1st?
The good news is that Sissoko signed a new deal a couple of weeks ago. Everything’s gonna be ok….
I’m coming to the conclusion that Poch has agreed with Baldy that he can go to Manure in the summer. The players know this and four of the first team are out of contract in the summer.
I might be wrong with my theory but there’s something very odd about this. How can the form of the same players drop off so violently otherwise?
It must be because of Brexit. Or something.
