Obviously incredibly disappointing. I can’t see any way we can stay up this season. The confidence of the players looks shot.
I actually thought we played quite well today for most of the first half but our appalling decision making/final ball cost us and either side of that spell the usual defensive clusterf**k struck.
Emi should be dropped or at least banned from coming into our own half but even then the ease with which their player was able to run, unopposed into our box was ridiculous. A proper, drilled premier league side takes him out 35 yards from goal.
The defending for the second was pathetic again.
I think we must have had about 15 corners today, every single one either finding a Watford head or bring over hit. Although I think Farke is a good coach at certain things it strikes me how we just don’t benefit from marginal gains by being drilled at set pieces (both attacking or defending) in the way that sides like Pslace or Burnley or Shef U are.
Thiught Onel was good other than his final ball. MCLean actually played ok. I don’t think Trybull is good enough and I don’t understand why Farke didn’t okay Amadou.
