Watford v Burnley

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Apr 30, 2022 2:01 pm

Team:

Pope, Roberts, Collins, Tarkowski, Taylor, McNeil, Cork, Brownhill, Lennon, Weghorst, Rodriguez

Vydra bench, no Cornet.

Huge game - UTC.

Dunno why you'd bench Vydra.

NewClaret · Post by **NewClaret** » Sat Apr 30, 2022 2:02 pm

To leave him out completely in such a massive game suggests he’s not as close to a return as suggested.

Or not worth risking him

or different tactics, looking to play to the lines ?

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Apr 30, 2022 2:05 pm

Not keen on Lennon playing on the left at all. Much rather have Vydra or Jay out there. Bit disappointed.

Fair point but Jay looked lost out wide.

Lennon makes us more solid away from home with his terrific work rate closing down. Bring Vydra on later to stretch the game.

Personally I’d rather have a wideman wide. He always puts a defensive shift in also.
Matty can come on if needed. Now we are making better use of the subs he’s almost guaranteed to get on.

Jay or Vydra on the left probably wouldn't give us the balance we need especially away from home.

I would've started Vydra but Jay hasn't done much wrong tbh.

Surely he'll be on the right with Dwight back on the left.

Afternoon All, from a lovely Spring afternoon in the Peaks,
Here's hoping another three points on our way.
Wish our results were better against other struggling sides though.

COME ON UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU CLARETS!

I’d be very surprised. Dwight has been our star man on the right and his link up with Roberts has been developing nicely. Dwight himself said how he prefers playing on the right.

Which would be odd considering the interviews we have seen have been talking about how much stronger he feels playing on the right and cutting inside.

Watford at pretty much full strength. We are missing Mee Cornet and Westy who would start if fit. Think Watford are better than their league position. Just hoping they don’t choose today today to turn in the performance they are capable of. UTC

Agree they have some good players. But we’ve just got to want it more than them and we’ll win. They don’t have the ‘togetherness’ we have. Put their defence under pressure. Their two centre halves are poor. Left back is okay but has a mistake or two in him.

It's probably the team we SHOULD have selected for the Wolves game as our innovative selection that day really didn't work imo and we kind of got away with it tbf.
