Completely agree with you there, ref took an age with nothing challenges early in the game, wanting to talk to everyone. He may have had good points to say but it smacked of having a lack of authority and the players were all over it from then on. Seems like players today smell fear on a ref like sharks, blood in water. At no point in the game did it look like the ref had control or authority.

Tomkins played really well. Hennessey made a good reflex save from Ward. Sakho did well. Apart from them we were well below average.

God that was awful. Need Wilf and Andros out wide.

Get AWB back in and start Sorloth

I don't know. Roy has been shown to be ruthless when people play badly. See Speroni replacing Wayne, Sorloth replacing Bentenke, Schlupp for PvA, etc. I would say he's the first manager for a long time that is willing to change things, the thing is he hasn't had a lot of choice. He does still seem reluctant to make in game changes though. I too hope he brings Wan Bissaka back next week though, as Ward is far too slow these days and he can't always make brilliant last ditch tackles.

Anyway, we were pretty rubbish going forward bar about 15 minutes in the second half. We do seem to struggle when teams are more aggressive, so it would be good to bring in someone a bit tougher for next season if we stay up. Maybe that Amadou lad from France?

MOTM was Sakho for me, or maybe Tomkins.

That was tough a great point today. Although we were sloppy with our passing today Watford were on us all the way through and never gave us a moments rest. That was a well earned point. COYP
