he dived off their payroll. Good riddance.

Maybe a good strategy for us would be to bring Wilfried on for the last 20 minutes - to score/assist a winner where it is needed. The opposition defenders will be more tired and hence slower. Wilf will have had an hour to watch and figure out their weaknesses, and we run less risk of getting him injured over the 95 minutes.

ManUre used Ole gunnar Solskaier like this, even when he was young and easily able to play 95 minutes. He always came onto the pitch with 20 minutes left and nearly always scored.

the opposition cannot foul wilfried if they cannot catch up with him.

Eze Peasy at Anfield....

Deeney is a real dirt bag, always has been, always will be. He is also really dumb, again he always has been and always will.

Thank you Troy for these incredibly dumb comments to make.

Now referees know for sure Zaha is targeted for deliberate fouls, in a coordinated way which must be sponsored by team management.

These comments will do so much more for Wilf than anything he could ever say himself.

Expect the red cards to be flying now, and I bet the powers that be have used some clips of the Capoue "tackle" to show referees how to actually do their job. It was an absolute shocker and now it is clear that Capoue, along with his whole band of Watford dirtbags had been told by management to do that and more to Wilf.

Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha.

This is the full interview.

Troy Deeney: 'If you were playing against him, you stop him. You take it in turns of kicking him. I know no one wants to hear that, but you go; "You hit this time, you hit him the next time". You don't have the same player tackle him because you know you're gonna get booked.
'It's difficult, but also as a captain I'd be the first... if we were playing him this week and he'd just said those comments I'd have been like: "Ref, don't you be the first one to give him a pen. Don't you start going easy on him".
'You can then flip it and start being more psychological with the referees.
Chris Sutton: So you can get into the referee's head?
Deeney: 'You want to say to him (the ref) in that little meeting we have an hour and a half before kick-off; "Do you want to be the first one to give him a penalty for diving?"
Sutton: 'So do you think that referees can be influenced?'
Deeney [laughing]: 'Clearly'

Touch my coffee and I will slap you so hard even Google won't be able to find you.

That article should be posted in every Ref's room from now on and it applies to more than just Zaha of course.
Watford may find themselves in hot water on this one and are likely to see many reads and yellows over the coming weeks.

Have to admit I don't disagree.

Not for the first time Troy's media profile has got him into trouble.

Agree. Whilst it was obvious to us, it may not have been to other referees. Not sure what a ref can do about it though if they are taking it in turns. Perhaps make sure that the player is given a yellow to ensure that he doesn't do it again (or a red in the case of the Capoue rake on Zaha.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.
