    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Watford Match Thread - Monday 10th Apr

    Watford look far better technically even before the goal. First touch and passing way sharper. Norton-Cuffy has spent more time in defensive midfield areas than his own position.

    Ratings v Swansea

    Swansea have a nice calculator on their forum. Would be a nice addition on here too if it still enabled individual ratings and comments.

    Totally understandable but think people are reacting to the league situation rather than the match itself. We played alright today, should have scored a couple and got away with a couple too. We are far too reliant on the same 2 or 3 players to be on top of their game every week to be a top 6 side.

    We weren't great but their keeper probably wins man of the match.

    Rather lose 1-0 going for it now, than play out a draw.

    I can see a decent footballer in Wilson-Esbrand, he's just lacking a bit of cutting edge with his final ball. Norton-Cuffy reminds me more of DaCosta than a PL loanee though.

    That's 3 blatant pull backs that the ref hasn't booked now. You just know we'll get one as soon as we do it.

    And to my earlier point, that just shows what an extra player forward pressing can do to their defence.

    I'd be switching to a box pretty soon rather than the 5-3-1-1. Struggling to press their centre backs at the moment and it's all a bit easy for them to bypass Allen and Gyokeres and get the ball into midfield. Plus we don;t have many options to pass forwards to when we do get the ball.

    Forget like to post ratio. His word to actual point ratio is the off the charts!

    Do we need a whole new team in the summer?

    Despite all the rosiness around Wasps & SISU being gone, and the team flirting with the playoffs, this summer's transfer window is still absolutely crucial. If the season tails off now, we lose Gyokeres and Hamer and our new unproven recruitment team don't recruit well, then next season could be...

    We just haven't been able to handle their movement off the ball. Midfield running from deep, forwards dropping into the half space and it's left us completely flat footed.

    Alex Neil looks like he should have a flat cap, border collie and wellies.

    If we get to half time at 0-1 I genuinely wouldn;t be surprised if we win this. 1 goal back and the momentum shift after missing this many chances will be huge.

    We gonna bother marking anyone in our own box today? Shocking defending so far.

    Back line and marking was sloppy. Dabo needed to get closer to the crosser though, left himself in no mans land.

    Godden got back to back hattricks in our L1 promotion season. Last game of 2019, first of 2020 I think. Still been a while though!

    Our Midfield 🤩

    If we were able to keep the ball for 2 minutes our entire midfield wouldn't be in the top 20 tacklers in the division :D
