Derby drew today, been in some bad form but coincided with the fact they have no strikers

I expect as soon as Bent or Martin is back that they will go top again

Watford have 50 goals between the trio of Deeney, Vydra and Ighalo. Christ, i wish we could get that kind of production from multiple players

Just equalized vs Derby and they're down a man. Good stuff, match. Wish there was more championship football on tv here in the states.

See Bent scored again, albeit from the spot. 6 in 10 now? (6 in 6 starts I think?)

The run in is going to be quite amazing. Middlesborough leading but still to play 3 of the top 8 in the remaining 6 games, where as Watford have just the one and Bournemouth have none of the top 8 after today

Not just the top but the bottom is close as well, Wigan always seem to produce something special in difficult circumstances and it's Milwall vs Wigan next week.

He has been shit though, Derby has been in a downward spiral ever since they had no strikers but even when bent has been playing he cant do what Martin does

Lingard is annoying as fuck and as a LW is shit. He can only play with the ball either with his body open looking at goal trying to cut on to his right foot or run backwards. That is literally all he can do. His passing pathetic, tbf he does complete alot of passes but the weight of those passes is poor

Not bad if he's scoring like that and playing badly.

Shame Derby have slipped up - shocked to see Middlesbrough at the top!

Went to the Abbey today to watch Cambridge at home to Bury.

They were awful,midfield always on the back foot and no mobility up front.

Oh and how bad are the officials in lower league?? Can't see blatant offsides and fouls and plainly forget about the advantage rule

I wouldn't mind buying Ighalo if Watford fail to get promoted. I can't see Udinese wanting too much for him either.

Good point for Hartlepool... well on their way to completing the great escape.

Watford have him permanantly now. Shady happenings, judging by good ol' wiki. Udinese term'd the loan and released him. Watford signed him again that day

Not the end of the world, plus he's only got 2 years left on the deal... could still pick him up fairly cheaply.

Would be a great experience and achievement for Fredericks (a shame he's injured atm) and Pritchard to help their respective teams to promotion.

Hope not, as I would actually be able to afford a PL season ticket at £319, though the season ticket price for young adults is ridiculously cheap at £195

I know you can't really judge someone on 45 minutes of football but this Paredes at right back for Watford looks much better than the options we have!
