Was not able to watch or even listen to the Millwall game so am now catching up with the full match replay on Albion tv. So far, have only watched the first half which, tbh, was not as bad as I expected. The first 30 mins or so, with the exceptions of a few forays into our end, seemed mostly played in their half and while Watford's decision to not press off the ball led to a bit too much walking football with sideways passing across the back between Gilchrist, Phillips and Mepham rather than moving the ball forward faster, I wasn't too unhappy with the general intent and desire. Mikey in particular, as well as Styles, Price and others seemed up for it.
Watford began to come into it in the last 15 mins but we were good for going a goal up and Price's strike was decent. We were still lacking in some incisiveness and quality in our final play but the intent at least seemed there. Guess the second half will tell a different story?
