Swap Emery with Wenger on the touchline with same results, would everyone be saying they're playing great football and just needs time or they'll be mocking them ?

They're doing ok, but there's no much progress anyway to say things like Emery changed them or made them good again. Some after that Spurs match were saying he's best tactical astute manager in the league, like seriously ?

They're the same old Arsenal that's all. Whatever they'll progress under him in the future or not, it's something we'll have to wait and see.
It's early days. Emery has had 5 months, the last 5 years of Wenger reign were really waste of time bar the FA cups. He should've left around 2012.

Great boost for Watford, can go on and win it in second half now.

Sure as I said, anything can happen in the future and he can progress them further, it's something to see.

Is it just me, or is Ole attempting to play the same style of football as Sarriball? The pressing and build up play looks identical although Chelsea is a bit better at it.

Can't wait to see Hazard fecking off to Madrid. I bet Chelsea will take a serious hit by this.

Let's say next season all the top teams drop way more points to bottom teams than this year and Man. United are second in league with say 35 points after 19 games under Pochettino, much difference no?

Think we also have to factor in way they're run under Kroenke they aren't going to spend 100-200m in transfer windows so Emery going to have to continue making Torreria style signings, promising players in 20-30m range.

If Chelsea looses or draws, we will have two teams with 5-6 points ahead. Top 4 doesn't look so impossible now all of a sudden :drool:

Thanks Ed for showing ** and firing Mourinho.
Come on Watford

If he makes us in a title challenge next season at the same point, well sure. If your opponents are getting more points from the bottom half of the table, then you should get similar amount of points too, without excuses. If the bottom half is as strong to provide problem for all of them, then you can't blame yourself.

Nice to see Hazard go around the keeper. Should have two though. We got lucky with that Keppa error, Watford had to score that.

Caught out from a set piece ffs. It's a nice hit, someone should anticipate it though.

So Watford's own goal of the season competition continues. We'll just have to allow them only scruffy opportunities. They all want to score beautiful goals only.

ALways liked Foster but he's always had these rash moments. Could've been a better keeper than he has been.
