Watford are doing well but, bar United, all their wins this season have come against struggling teams. Can't see anything but a win for us here, I'll certainly be mightily pissed off if that doesn't happen. We won't keep a clean sheet though so we'll need to bag at least 2 goals.

3-1.

 

[SALTIRE]

Liverpool are at home Pags, you have your score as if Watford are going to win 3 - 1.

I think we'll concede a couple in this one, and Watford I believe play two upfront which may be an issue for our defense which concedes even when there is just one upfront. They have also shown to be a side capable of turning Liverpool over and I think this one won't be easy at all. However, with the form the side is in just now, I more than expect us to just have enough to turn them over.

3 - 2

 

[JimJams]

Watford are struggling for goals of late so I doubt they'll grab more than 1. Three for the scouse.

 

[SALTIRE]

Hope thats case anyway Jimmy, I'm not so sure, with Liverpool anything can happen and it usually does.

 

[johnnytodd]

I can see Watford winning this, Liverpool's luck has to run out soon enough. My prediction of November / December collapse is still in place and the hamstrings will start pinging soon enough. Klopp hasn't learnt his lesson and the squad is wafer thin.

1 - 0 Ighalo winner

 

[JimJams]

The defence probably is. Elsewhere they have lots of options.

 

[G-Dragon]

Really should win this comfortably. Massive disappointment if we don't considering City will probably smash Boro. We should have a fully fit squad too, apart from Ings.

 

[Super_horns]

2-0 - our best defender is out now which is a blow.

And having Ighalo up front is like having 10 men on the pitch.

Who is your best defender? Haven't watched much of Watford this season. All I could find was Sebastian Prodl being a "doubt."

 

[Super_horns]

Yes - he has been our most consistent defender.

Cathcart is injured which leaves us with Kaboul and Britos who aren't bad physically but slow plus a young Belgium lad.

You have so many different likely scorers though even with a full team we'd struggle.

 

[Pagnell]

Essential we win this now City only managed a draw, especially if Arsenal only bag a point against Spurs as I predict. Some very winnable games coming up too.

 

[SALTIRE]

Arsenal will beat Spurs though I of course would also like to see them draw.

Found on a Watford forum near you:

I can’t believe how much ridiculous media hype Liverpool are getting this year, even at lunch on sky sports today they had Phil Thompson spouting his 5 reasons that they will win the league, I’m sure one of which was that they had 11 players starting each game. It was pretty much “1. Jurgen Klopp is the new saviour of the world. 2. We’ve got 11 players starting every game. 3. Were the mighty Liverpool. 4. Jurgen Klopp is the new saviour of the world. (did I already say that?)”.

What a load of utter tripe.

Every day a random old Liverpool player is rolled out in front of us to tell us how fantastically amazing everything is with Liverpool and the new saviour. This love in with Jurgen Klopp “ooh Jurgen we love you”, “ooh Jurgen, how amazing it was that you broke your glasses because you’re such an awesome guy that you just love your amazing team and your amazing self so much”, “ooh Jurgen what a great formation you put out”, “Ooh Jurgen what was the secret behind your amazing transformation of the greatest football team in the world”, “Ooh Jurgen when you win the league with your amazing team, what’s the first thing your amazing self will amazingly be doing to celebrate how absolutely fantastic you and you team are”. “Ooh Jurgen what colour are your underpants this evening”. It’s like utterly ridiculous. Bonkers. Why is everyone in the media so desperate for Liverpool to do so well that they orgasm every time they get to spout out some other ar$ecarp about what a great and fantastic team Jurgen Klopp is creating and how wonderful it is that he has graced the humble premier league with his almighty presence.

Why are they all so desperate for this second rate team to get back to the heights of success they really had so, so, so long ago now. I mean, they last won the league 26 years ago. TWENTY SIX YEARS AGO. It’s not like they’ve fallen recently. They’ve not been champions for 26 years. Get over it media. Get goddamn over it.

Now I have absolutely nothing personal against Liverpool, Heck it would be good for a second team of minnows in a row to topple the other giants of English football. But this media love in is just sickening.

We need to stuff them… Heck, even if we stuffed them 5-0 the media would massage Jurgen’s ego telling him how it’s the awful ugly side of English football that some little brats like Watford can come along and have the audacity of winning at the famous Liverpool in front of the awesome and most amazing fans in the world on the kop, and ruining his perfectly good day. The papers the next day would be full of how amazing Jurgen is that he showed such god-like composure after the defeat and how he’s so amazing that he will turn it around and “oh when he almost lost his glasses again, whadda super guy”. The Telegraph would have a field day about how we had 11 men on the pitch, that one of our players got on the bus without a ticket so should be investigated, or that Capoue’s socks were 2mm higher that the premier league regulation 32 mm below the knee so the game should be forfeit and awarded to the glorious and obviously cheated Liverpool.

1-3 Watford.

Oh, and Happy Birthday. Probably anyway.

 

[Pagnell]

I suspect if we win he'll spontaneously combust. A cracking read that was that cheered up my morning no end.

 

[Bilo]

Aye he puts our local wums to shame with that cracker of a post.

 

[Skinner]

"Now I have absolutely nothing personal against Liverpool"

 

[Pagnell]

"Other than everything!!!!! I hate them I hate them I hate them! Aaaaaagggggggghhhhh!"

 

[Stevencc]

He is clearly a man of impeccable taste, if questionable temperament.

He'll probably punch a hole in his wall later if the match goes as expected and Liverpool thrash Watford.

[Stevencc]

You sick, sick man.

 

[SALTIRE]

That Watford guy!

 

[Super_horns]

Probably another one of the kids that pollute that form trying to be big and brace fishing for a bite from opposition fans...

 

[G-Dragon]

Pressure is on now. Could go top if we win.

 

[Stevencc]

There's no pressure you wimp, you are at home to Watford.

 

[Stevencc]

How much of a prick does Firmino look with that hair?

 

[Pagnell]

Been a bit limp so far from us, need to step up.

 

[Pagnell]

Been coming, threatening for the last ten minutes.

Cracking header.

 

[snortingfrogs]

Great goal by Mané.
