Today’s Football 2021/22 Season

We all know that 3rd was offside. But hey, let's change the rules to make no sense.

 

[BlueStevie35]

It’s a good goal but Jesus the praise it and the City one are getting is insane

 

[wm02]

Tim Howard absolutely right in his halftime commentary…too many Watford players just walking

 

[kenada_blue]

That rule needs changing though (and has done for awhile) because the offside player clearly influences the defender into doing something he'd not be doing without the presence of said offside player.

Shush. That's just sensible talk.

Watford were not this bad under the old guy

I didn't see much of them, but they certainly had more energy under Xisco.

That Fernandez is up there with one of the worst players I’ve seen in a long time

 

[degsy]

This is someone needs to beat Liverpool but it was never going to be Watford and Claudio is proberbly looking at the next fixture anyway

Which is Vs ???

 

[Ring master]

Said it weeks ago when Watford appointed claudio ranieri, The way Watford carry on he may not last long


His 1st 8 league games

Home v Liverpool
Away v Everton
Home to Southampton
Away to Arsenal
Home to Man Utd
Away to Leicester
Home to Chelsea
Home to Man City

The rules of football need tearing up. How on earth Salah isn't interfering with play. He's clearly offside

Cos apparently the defender "plays the ball" therefore brings in the next phase of play.

Utter joke of a rule.

 

[sageyefc]

They’ll be on the blower to fat Sam within a week or two

OH WILL YOU SHUT UP ABOUT SALAH YOU BORING BERKS!!!!! My country for decent, impartial and well-informed BT sport commentators and pundits

Bet their fans will want a new manager by the next intl break the weirdos

Shame on their owner for giving in every time Watford fans get itchy feet (usually after they go a few without a win)

After last season's relegated sided all came straight back up or reached the playoffs it's no surprise to anyone that recently relegated West Brom, Bournemouth and Fulham lead the way this year.

Meanwhile aside from Brentford (so far) promoted Norwich and Watford look as though they can't wait to get back to the Championship again. Last year recently promoted West Brom, Fulham and Sheff United went down.

It's quite obvious if Brentford do a Sheff United and do finish well this year they'll repeat the Yorkshire sides destiny and become second season syndromers next year.

Big city side Leeds look the only side capable of surviving two seasons and they too were in he relegation zone and looked in massive trouble recently.

What a waste of time promotion and relegation is when they just alternate every year. West Brom have spent twenty years going up and down between the prem and championship. Norwich, Bournemouth, Watford and Fulham all look likely to join them.

Their formula of changing their manager virtually every season has proved a very successful one for them. For a club of Watford's (lack of) pedigree, relatively small support base and size, to spend so many seasons in the top flight in the last ten or so years, is very creditable indeed.

They are like a smaller scale version of Chelsea with success being for them not the bagful of trophies won virtually every year by the South West London outfit so much but seasons spent in the top flight.

Both have a rotating door policy for managers and both in their different ways are highly successful while doing so.

£5 says that 60% of MOTD tonight will be Linkeer et al with their kecks down talking about the Salah goal.... the other 40% will be spent analysing his goal against City two weeks ago from every angle.
