Match Thread Watford 2-3 Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Izzy1878]

My Watford mate loves this game...us and them have become peers now...equals...and that makes for a great rivalry.
I appreciate that us and West Ham are also equals, but the Watford fixture I look forward to more.
I was hoping we might create a rivalry with Wolves, but them (and Leicester) are in a league above us nowadays.

Too hard to predict with how erratic we are, I'll go with away form then and say loss or draw.

I think Ancelotti is slowly turning us from erratic to erotic, so going for a slightly sexy victory, as long as we stay erotic for the whole game.

 

[Abraders]

Not confident here this time.

Watford under Pearson deserve respect. We will need to be at our best to get a point from the game. I hope Deulefeu does not score.

 

[Grinch]

1-0 Everton. Mina finally bags his first of the season

[The Missing Lineker]

They’re a tough team in every sense under Pearson. We’ll do well getting anything from this. Sort of game a Dunc led side might actually have had more chance of winning perhaps....

 

[ToffeeTim]

Very tough game. Dont expect much tbh given our midfield options.

Too many PMs to answer each individually: but no, my Hornet supporting mate is not Ross Pottinger. I haven't seen Potty since my primary school's centenary celebrations back in 2003. Rupert is my Watford-supporting buddy.
And before my PM in-box is deluged with "did Rupert also suffer terrible homesickness?" type questions, I genuinely have no idea. He doesn't come across as a blubbering type. Bit of a druggie, but good company (possibly because of that ).
We are both very much looking forward to this weekend's 'clash of the titans'...Toffees vs Hornets. I imagine most of world football's eyes will similarly be focussed on this now famous rivalry...

...NSNO

Think people saying our confidence is low after Newcastle need to look at Watford .
Lost to a 95th minute goal to villa on Tuesday to drop into relegation places again and then lost to Tranmere in the cup on Thursday night .

When was the last time we beat a team three times in one season?

True this, last 5 games they are the only side outside the top 3 who have won 3 games in the last 5 fixtures. A draw will be a good result, forget they are in the bottom 3 thats is based on early season form pre Pearson

A draw would be a good result if we’re trying to stay in the Premier League. It would be a terrible result if we want European football next season.
