Deeney takes swipe at Silva ahead of Watford's clash with Everton

Troy Deeney has urged Watford fans to not taunt Everton boss Marco Silva when the two sides meet on Saturday afternoon... but Deeney couldn't help but take a swipe at the former Hornets manager.

Personally I think Silva should put this up in the dressing room.

His first and last season...

If anything it’s normal for things to dip because change is needed if Silva and Brands can learn we should end up with more success next season, if we can’t learn from mistakes on the pitch we have to learn off the pitch, so sacking another manager isn’t the way to go in my opinion.

Also being able to identify our problems shows it’s not deep problems, strength comes from knowing your own weakness I hope

[Poor language removed] the kopites finish top half

The players would probs agree with Troy.

Just for the record Silva did not seem to have a problem coaching defense in Portugal or Greece so I don't necessarily believe that it is an inability in his tactical understanding. I would also be very surprised if they haven't been working on it for months, so that does suggest it is a player issue. Or defending is SO different in the Premier League he can't adapt??

Not PL standard.

Read a stat this morning, the 3 teams that have conceded the most set pieces in prem league history is Everton, Hull, Watford...all managed by Silva at the time.

Stat is slightly squuewed due to length of time at each club, but it isn't good reading.

It looks very much like an aspect of Silvas managerial style that is consistently following him around (in the PL).

It's not just skewed, it's wrong.

Brighton conceded 21 goals from set-pieces last season, the record number is 25. Neither sides were managed by Silva.

Richard Keys tried to say that 'at this stage in the season, no teams have conceded more than Hull, Watford or Everton', yet at this stage in the season in 2016/17, Silva had been at Hull four games and kept two clean sheets.

I agree that it looks like the weak link in Silva's system - or the weakest link of several weak links, perhaps.

Yes maybe the stat is unfair...but what you can take from it is set piece goals conceded regularly and a Silva system.

I think every game I've watched this season, it's a repeat of the same free-kick on wing, from a stupid foul, and scored by anyone standing on edge of 6 yard box to nod in, unchallenged.

I expect 2 goals to happen like this against Watford in first half. Then two unchallenged volleys in 6 yard box second half!

 

[evertonarntwe]

now things have died down a little from last weeks mess ( I don't count city ) if he wins tomorrow he buys himself more time

if we lose again I just don't see how he comes back from it, been months of garbage now. needs to start showing people why we risked points etc for him

Its not a stat and it isn't unfair, its factually wrong. Regardless of how poor we are at set pieces.

Its Keys chatting madness to make his bum buddy Allardyce look better by taking further swipes at Everton and the manager. There's a reason this bloke works in Qatar or wherever. Nothing that comes out of his mouth has any factual context and should be just plain ignored as the ramblings of a bitter old man.

Thought this was interesting.

Goals against from open play is 17 better than last year (and we are actual 7 better off overall).

Thoughts anyone?

My thoughts are, maybe he should work on his set pieces as it's making him/them/us look like chumps.

So we're sound at set pieces then?

I literally said we are poor at set pieces. What I'm saying is Richard Keys should not be listened to in any circumstance.
