We should have had a fully deserved win tonight.
As it is, it's two points dropped.
First half was flat from both teams but we were the better side.
We stepped it up in the second half and got the deserved goal with a brilliant finish by Cian Ashford.
But it was two points dropped, shows how we desperately need a striker and some pace in this window.
Awful defending for the Watford equaliser.
Hope we don't persist with Rubin as a false nine whenever Robinson isn't available. It isn't his fault, it's just not a good position for him.
Robertson caused them issues all night with his set pieces, my MOTM.
A decent performance but at the end of the day we should have won that game.
Onto the game on Saturday now....

Dropping points in these sort of games can and probably will be catastrophic come the end of the season

We don't seem to have the nous to just put the ball out play and defend a throw in.... o'dowda had chance to put ball and player out into touch but chose to tussle with him result they win ball goes byline open header 1yrd out... typical of our late conceded goals. Frustrating

Lack of strikers cost us tonight

Much improved performance but this is why we are going down. That feels like a defeat tonight. Absolutely gutted. Draws are not enough

Just abysmal defending for their goal. Watford offered nothing.

Yet again too many changes, wrong players and at the wrong times… what was Rallsy doing when he came on, looked like he was more interested in throwing players about than playing football. And don’t get me started on Yak!!!
Even Tanner looks out of place at the moment, tbh I think he’s been rushed back from his injury a bit too quick

I agree the subs make no sense.
Why go three at the back, confuses everyone after playing 2 for 88mins.
O’Dowda’s defending is getting worse
Bring this new striker in and play him and Ashford together up top, 20 goals in Ashford in that position

As posted before - We can't see these games out ... When leading

Riza must be able to see that when we start dropping deeper to defend a one goal we are putting ourselves in danger, so he should be screaming at everyone to push up the pitch. Once they scored you could see he was happy to take the point by the changes he made. Mind you I thought the same, because I think another 5 minutes and we might have lost. Not happy that we threw away another 2 points. In fairness I wouldn't say it was poor finishing that cost us last night, the header off the line, keeper's save from Willock in the first half and Goutas's header that Colwill couldn't quite get to, to tap in from a couple of yards, is really what we deserved in all honesty. Watford are only a couple of points outside the top 6,but they are rubbish, over the 2 games against the we were easily the better side.

Lacking a striker and pace in midfield we dropped deeper and deeper the counter would have Been on if we had more pace that 1-1 would have been 2-0 3-0 we will always struggle when we lack pace teams will push right up on us cos they now there is no pace
