    Amazed that the EFL have allowed this to go ahead on Friday given they were away at Middlesborough in the cup on Wednesday night. Big advantage for us.

    Watford and Tring Brewery have collaborated to bring out a new Centenary Ale which will be available to drink at the real ale bar in the Upper GT.

    Easy mistake to make, pal, confusing Burnley with Barnsley .... I do it all the time.

    Wow what perfect timing! If we repeat Monday's crap shoot tonight, there will be Ale to wash the disgust away.

    It doesn't involve playing against anyone. Nice stadium tour though.

    Burnley are around 3/1 to win this game which seems like a decent bet...

    Bachmann
    Gaspar Cathcart Sierallta Kabs Kamara
    Choudury Cleverley Kayembe
    Sarr JP

    The energy of Choudhury on the bench and Davis in the stand will lead us to a comfortable win.

    Presume they just played their reserves though ?

    Sarr & JP upfront worries me as neither are typical goalscoring centre forwards. Also a lack of creativity behind them in midfield.
    0-2.

    It's clear that class-wise Dennis and Sarr are right up there, but for me - in the championship they don't quite fit with our team or dimensions. I know many disagree on Sarr, but for me Dennis is not a team player and Sarr is not a hard working wide midfielder. He needs to be playing freely out wide for a top team where he'll do what he does best.
    Last game we played purely on the break, and yes that suited us having those 2 up top, but it was totally detrimental to the team overall.
    I reckon RE knew it will take a few weeks to settle the new players in, so playing as we have was the obvious thing to do, but I'm OK with our future being without Dennis and Sarr.
    With Choudhrey in I'm looking for us to play 3-1-4-2 but what do I know.?!

    They last played on Saturday, so they are more fresh than us.

    That was Barnsley I think.

    Not only did he play in many of the games but he was often the best player on the park,

    The best option with Sarr and without Dennis is move Sema to the left of a front 3 and play 433. It wont happen so we're gonna have to go 532 simply because a 2 man midfield would be outfought by Burnley.

    WTF. Sema should be nowhere near the pitch.

    Anything involving keeping Sema in the team is an appalling idea.

    When was the last time we lost to these Yorkshire clodhoppers?

    WFC 8 Barnsley 0.
    (Sarr missed 3 pens).

    It's too hot for football. We should just call it a draw and head to a pub with an outside garden and umbrellas.

    In Prague at the moment, looking for a bar to watch the game.

    You may be unlucky. I don't think there are any bars in Prague.

    If some people on Twitter are to believed, this is tonight's lineup:

    Bachmann
    Gaspar
    Sierralta
    Cathcart
    Kamara
    Cleverley
    Choudhury
    Kayembe
    Sarr
    João Pedro
    Sema

    Either back to the good old 4-3-3, or Gaspar at RCB with Kamara persisting at RWB.

    This assumes that Sierralta is fit........

    Nothing in the team news the club put out to suggest he isn't. Also WTE isn't in the squad tonight, which makes it more likely Sierralta is in the team with Kaba on the bench.

    We can't be using video analysis if Clevs and Sema are still in
