Yeah lad just needs time to settle in.

That's two penalties he's been robbed of, counting that one at Nukey :evil:

I know, if that was Salah or Ronnie the Rapist they would just pick the ball up and take the penalty, no need for refs or var

Just hope our inability to get a second doesn’t come back to haunt us.

Dominant first half.

Meh.

Far bettter but not many good chances.

Should have had a pen but only 1-0.

Seeing we have been pretty awful in the second half of our games this season we need an early second goal.

Please no changes at HT

😂 Makes no sense to me why refs come to a vociferous Elland Road and then turn down Stonewall penalties for the home side. There are better ways to live dangerously surely?

Totally dominant first half.
Always a worry when there's only one goal in it though.
Watford look very poor and we need to assert ourselves on the scoresheet

Need to make all this pressure count before Raph is subbed for Roberts on 60 mins

Totally dominant 1st half.

Should have had a penalty.

Have had decent moments that should have been more (Rodrigo especially not done enough in that respect).

Not going to get carried away though because we always seem to dip 2nd half, hopefully not today.

We've murdered them first half and should be 3-0 up. Hope we keep this up and get the full 3 points well deserved

Nothing to say more than everyone else here. We need to make this count given our tendency this season to look tired in the second half. Watford have a dangerous clinical player in Sarr and it only takes one chance. Plus, Rpha will be off at 60 for he who dare not be mentioned.
