It's an odd game, not one thing nor t'other. Early on, there was a lot of very stylish and focused midfield play from Lo Celso, Alli and Lamela, but it all went nowhere in particular, because Watford were very organised and we couldn't get any shots off.
Then Watford gradually started to boss the game, but they couldn't take advantage of our increasingly twitchy defence.
Both teams are playing an attacking game, except early on when Watford packed the box, but there have been very few chances.
I thought our midfield would be the area we would struggle, but it's been the only part of the pitch where we have outplayed them. Go figure.
At least we got to half time without conceding the first goal. It's been awhile...
