Agree, it was very enjoyable - but that is when we had Kante doing everyone else job for them and the mighty Huth helping Morgan clear out the cornersIf CP could find a way of playing without the need for Mahrez to track back, that would be awesome.
On an aside, I liked it when we didn't bring everyone back for corners
Was it Stoke when we put 3 on the half way line and you could almost hear the Stoke players wondering what to do?
That's when it is a beautiful game

That would be great and a brave move from Mr Poo. Fingers crossed we see it happen without him being binned for upsetting them.

His name is pronounced 'pwell'. There's no poo involved at all.

God his first press conference was boring! Let’s hope his team has more personality than he seems to possess.

Pwell why does he spell it like it should be poo then? Definitely poo involved.

Thankfully, the match isn't played in the press room.
Get over it.

The Watford board have an interesting view on managers, they don't have the manager as the most pivotal person in the process, which seems to be why even through changing managers, they're doing rather well.
That model makes sense for every mid-table prem club.

I think he will be a decent appointment and the right man at the right time, it is clear we are going to go through something of a transition over the next 12 months including a number of the title winners moving on, he demonstrated at Southampton he could handle losing key players and still managed to create a competitive side that finished 8th and got to a cup final.
I see us going through similar and he will be key in ensuring we remain a competitive premiership outfit through this transition.

Greatly encouraged by reading this article. Basically saying, "It is not a priority just to play good football or nice football. The priority is to win, whether at Leicester, Southampton, or Arsenal – all. It is about how can we have good results.”
