This game deserves penalties for being so boring.

I think those tweets are really unfair on these teams, HUGE rewards are up for grabs here.

Yeah, judging their ability to survive on this one game is quite silly.

Much worse teams than Watford have gone up and done alright. The Championship has been an incredibly tight and competitive division this season and Watford have torn through it smashing teams at a canter at various stages.

Madrid-Gaf. There's more news recently linking Isco with Madrid but with Özil and Modric there will he get playtime? I would have chosen him over Modric but Modric has done great once he got adjusted to the team and Özil is pretty good too.
 
Next CL season:

Pot 1:
Bayern München
FC Barcelona
Chelsea
Real Madrid
Manchester United
Arsenal*
FC Porto
Benfica

Pot 2:
Atlético Madrid
Olympique Lyon*
Shakhtar Donetsk
AC Milan*
Schalke 04*
Olympique Marseille
CSKA Moscow

Pot 3:
Juventus
Manchester City
Ajax
Borussia Dortmund
Olympiakos Piraeus
Galatasaray
some team
some team

Pot 4:
FC København
Napoli
Anderlecht
BATE Borisov*
Celtic *
Steaua Bucuresti*
APOEL Nicosia*
some team

Dat Pot 3: a CL finalist, two CL quarter finalists, Ajax and City. Looks stronger than Pot 2 lol

the football united were playing with a dutch coach was already quite bad.
now imagine how much worse it'll be now that they'll be coached by a bunch of brits.

and this time around, there won't be any trophies either.

How's Zaha been?

On way home.
Looks decent.

Can beat his marker easily but doesn't always take the right option after that. Tries to beat too many players and then loses possession and some of his passing his been poor.

But there was a moment in the game where he beat his man and put in an excellent through ball for the Palace striker who should have scored.

He needs a lot of work to improve his decision making but he's a very exciting player to watch.

JUST WON A PENALTY.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
He was never going to miss. Class pen.

You'd put your house on him to score that.
