like why are you diving when you're 4-0 up lol 

Because sadly it’s ingrained. The managers, the ex-pro pundits- they all encourage players  to ‘go to ground’ and ‘invite contact’ etc etc. Let’s hope VAR will change that. Unfortunately Mane got away with it against us.

At least they didn't ramp up their GD. Just need Arsenal and Spurs to drop points.

In a way it’s good as it splits us from the middling likes of Burnley, Bournemouth etc in mid table. Even if we somehow mucked up the top 4 it should give us a better chance for top 6.

The only negative thing I can say about Chelsea is they have conceded 16 goals in 10 games. Twice as many as we have. 

That's why we have a serious chance of a top 3 finish. They also have European football too which will push their squad depth.

 

But I think they could be extremely dangerous next season. They have the Hazard money burning in their wallets which they can't spend! What a first world problem eh lol!? I suspect they will buy one or two marquee signings, someone like Jadon Sancho wouldn't surprise me given he's supposedly very good friends with Hudson-Odoi. Depending on how they spend it they could be dark horses, though it must be said with Klopp and Guardiola and the squads that both Man City and Liverpool have it's going to be some years before they start to flag. It says it all that we have had our best ever start to a season, have more points than at the same stage when we won the league, and are still "only" third.

I am not sure if we will score 9 goals all season!!

 

Missed some chances again although tbf Foster had to keep Bournemouth out a few times .

 

You've got Everton next, who many know are hit and miss, and also Norwich and Burnley in your next four fixtures (after Chelsea first).

 

Think that if you don't achieve a narrow victory over these three sides, who are certainly beatable, will certainly fear will you ever get a victory with your current manager in charge.

 

Hope you pull out of your situation, as Watford are a well-run club.

Mid to lower table will be incredibly tight this year. Teams like Brighton look to be playing well, with others you'd expect to be up there like Everton, West Ham and Wolves haven't hit form yet.

 

The battle for the drop looks close as well, Southampton and Watford doing their best to be relegated.

Would require Norwich beating them by 5 goals... I think I'd enjoy that almost as much as our evisceration of Southampton

 

If Newcastle beat Wolves and Norwich beat Manchester United, Manchester United will be 16th

Even if Norwich don't win by that much, they'd drop if Newcastle beat Wolves...
