    You've now mastered the art of not being able to defend as well Pulis!

    It seems to be escaping people's attention as to just how poor our defending is becoming over the last few months.

    Today's effort was a "car crash",Watford could've had ten with the way they pulled us apart.

    Evans seemed to have decided that since he's the best player in the school team that he'd do everything and on top of his own "greedy" performance his heading and distribution were awful.

    The Egyptian is filling me with less confidence every time I see him,panicky at times today and Dawson was awful,he got done with the diagonal over his head time after time.

    Gibbs did okay I thought.

    We sat too deep again and thus wasted Krychowiak's talent on the ball.

    Brunt and Phillips were poor but to replace their delivery quality with McLean and Livermore just about sums Pulis up.

    Hasn't taken long for Pulis to make JRod look like a pile of s h y t e has it!?

    We need a serious rethink and Chadli back in this side because at present we are going backwards even compared to 18 months ago.

    Very impressed with Watford and their forward thinking young manager.

    Good comments mickd buddy.
    I'm afraid that the McClean substitution was odd...clearly not overly thought out with him looking 'lost' on the right wing. He must be doing something special on the training ground. Undoubted commitment, but sadly lacking in ability at this level. Needs to be rested for a while (or loaned out ?)

    I thought Dawson was probably MOTM.
    Playing players out of position is just crazy. If we have to endure McClean then it needs to be on the left not the right.
    Yacob would have been a better choice to shore up the defence rather than Livermore but wasn't even on the bench.

    You probably weren't at the match Chris,I can assure you Dawson had a torrid time.

    I agreed with your comments on Yacob though.

    Check out their second goal and see how Hegazy at 6 ft 5 inches mistimes his jump allowing a free header.

    The Egyptian is the new Mardon.....looks great but has at least one horror moment per match.

    Dawson MOTM. My how we all view the game differently. He was basically tore a new one from start to finish.
    He of course had to compensate for Dawson by sticking McClean in front of him. Which of course led to the second goal. A left footer on the right trying to tackle with his left foot.
    He needs to go now. He clearly doesn't know his best team or formation or what players to play where.

    Fair comment Mick, I wasn't there and missed 15 minutes or so of the first half (when we scored twice).

    Funniest post I've read on here in ages, cheers Chris.

    I would have added loads of laughing emoji's if it were possible.

    Oh well........

    Funny it maybe, but your support for Pulis outweighs it.
