First half was pretty ponderous, but the thick idiots think it’s the system. They understand nothing of what they are actually watching. Complete ****wits
The reason it was a bit painful and ponderous is entirely to do with how Watford approached the game. The most defensive approach to a game I’ve seen in a long time. There was a time when our keeper nearly made it to the centre circle with the ball before anybody bothered to press. ‘Lumping it up’ against that tyoe of set up is just plain stupid, and plays right into their hands.
We did the right thing and played the right way and with a bit more quality up front we would have gone in up by one or two. Our balls into the box were poor, however, and I’m afraid Iheanacho is just embarrassingly shit.
Second half we did exactly the same things, but we just did them quicker. That is genuinely all that changed - play the same way, but just play it quicker. Simples. That and bringing on a proper striker, obviously. It was a stonking second half and I ****ing loved every second of it. Those that didn’t would be better off just ****ing off and watching some old Betamax videos of the Big Match, or something. They add nothing at all to the atmosphere other than ****ing moaning because we are playing patient football rather than wacking it up the pitch for no reason. Total ****s, the lot of ‘em. Just. ****. Off.
On the pitch, Vestergaard was simply outstanding. Hamza will never be Harry Winks but did a sound job in his place. Ndidi was a welcome return, but fitness caught up with him in the end. Vardy had a massive impact when he came on. He played right on the shoulder of their oafish back line, and created bucketloads of space for everyone else. Yeah he missed a ****ing sitter, but then he did what he’s always done, and what a duffer like Iheanacho can never do.
My man of the match, though, was Dewsbury-Hall. A masterful performance of linking play from front to back and from right to left. He was superb.
Loving this season. Can’t ****ing wait til the next game. Lovely jubbly
