As much as we have become more solid at the back than 18-19, we are less lethal in front of goal (OK, I know that's just a synonym for clinical, but I don't think that word is allowed on here). So many games this season we should have been out of sight and we end up clinging on.
You're right, but that workmanlike quality will probably keep them up next season. No one is ever going to give maximum points for artistic merit to Watford, but they get the job done more efficiently than we do. Having said that, I wouldn't want to support a team that plays like that. Or are run at the top like that. All that boring ugliness to come 14th in the Prem? What's the point?
