Excellent result for our cousins. Big Stef on the scoresheet. Wilmot unused sub although, with a choice of 12 subs, it’s almost mathematically impossible to get on the pitch.
I didn't watch the match, but it looks like Udinese were a little lucky... Udinese ... Genoa 12 Shots 21 5 Shots on target 6 38% Possession 62% 314 Passes 466 72% Pass accuracy 80%
Yep, almost a little too lucky. And not for the first time this season. My sources tell me the match officials are being investigated. I am not at liberty to say more at this juncture.
https://understat.com/match/9865 - looks a lot of Genoas shots were from terrible areas to shoot from though.
Cheers for that. I did assume as much, looking at their number of shots vs shots on target ratio. However, just glancing at the stats, it does look like Udinese put everyone behind the ball at home against a mid table side. They did what they needed to do to get 3 points closer to survival, but it probably won't please their fans too much in the long run.
Fantastic result for Empoli tonight, really cranks the pressure up on these gutless, jelly spined terds. Dare to dream people, the relegation is ON!
A win for Empoli and Bologna on Monday will see the hated Udinese finally back where they belong: in the relegation spots with little hope of survival. Hopefully the football gods are smiling and this loathsome terd of a club can be flushed out of serie a.
Little wonder no mention of our win on the Udinese website. It would turn into a PR disaster. Wonder if Gino ever envisaged he would take or make one of his overseas club purchasers bigger, better & stronger than the families native heirloom club?
Dude, STFU. Nobody here is interested in your one fag crusade against the best thing that has happened to Watford.
Fabulous news, bologna won 3-0! The pressure is well and truly back on our arch enemies, and considering their jelly spines, relegation seems certain! What a great day! The misery of yesterday is forgotten.
Just been reading through your recent posts. People in glass houses... But if my posts upset you, I urge you to use the ignore function. But I know you won't because you know you'd be missing out on 24 carat gold forum content. In the meantime, I'll continue to despise the hapless italians, just as they despise WFC.
Whatever. Edit. I've got more likes than you, nyah. And how you think that not having an associate club in Serie A with the associated bargaining advantage with European clubs, and the ability to give our unneeded players game time under close supervision would be of benefit to Watford FC, escapes me. Brexiter perhaps?
Wow what a fantastic day of results! Udinese humiliated v Roma and SPAL with an incredible result v Juve. Now we must pray for wins for bologna and Empoli and this hateful shower will be well and truly back in the do-do. Wonderful stuff.
Not sure if serious. 1. They absolutely despise us. 2. Every player we've taken from them recently has been indescribably garbage. 3. The one player we sent them has been rotting on the bench week after week.
The footballing gods seem to be helping Empoli ! 47 shots to 3 and a 0-0 draw ! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47943076
Yeah I'm as upset as you. Still, at least they didn't win and Bologna won so its not all bad. Just such a terrible shame that Empoli lost. Don't give up hope mate, it's still very likely they get relegated.
Little Zebras beaten 2-0 by Atalanta tonight. 4 points above relegation with 4 to play. Getting a bit tight for them now, but one thing in their favour is the run in, which on paper is easier than Empoli, the team below them. They should stay up but Pozzo's have some thinking to do as far as Udine is concerned over the summer. Wonder if a few of our 1st team players might be parachuted over to help out. Cathcart/Mariappa/Success would probably do well over there. We'll take Lasagane in exchange.
