Was interesting getting back last night and looking at the match thread and the old chestnut 'strong team' used for what is by any measure a weakened team. Not sure where this terminology started, but I think it's a strange one. Only 4 players who started last night were what you might term automatic first team picks (Dickie, Odubajo, Willock ('not good enough' according to some, only 6 months ago), and Chair). By the end, we were down to just 2 'first picks'.
So it was especially pleasing I think that the team played so well - I think I'm right in saying only Odubajo and Archer are over 24 or 25, and yet the team played with a real maturity. Dozzell did extremely well considering he was really the only traditional central midfielder in the side, Dunne continued to impress bar a couple of slips, Kakay was a joy as usual, and Willock and Chair were a cut above. Kelman was not a revelation, but his touch was good and if Dickie wasn't such a selfish goalscorer (winky emoji) might have scored himself. Looking forward to more of him.
All in all, really pleasing result from a weakened, young team. |  |

You ask gazza which 11 you should pick.
Obvs.  |
That would be good Watford, I would, normally, be very close to MW selection for sure. |  | | |
