    Craig Shakespeare could join Claudio Ranieri's coaching team at Watford following his exit from Aston Villa. Shakespeare was Ranieri's assistant at Leicester when they won the Premier League in 2016. (Football Insider)

    Looks as though he doesn't like catching the ball - but does look pretty agile.
    About the same height as Costel Pantilimon - I just hope he turns out to be better.

    I can fully understand him wanting away really - if that is what he wants. Regardless of what anyone thinks - and there are some making comments in that Wobby article who don't appear to have the power of thought - he is an international standard goalkeeper, playing for a country currently ranked 23rd by FIFA. Yet he can't get a game for his club - I'd be the same.

    Agree - he will be worried about his spot in the National team and probably under pressure to get 1st team football .

    Is the plan for Watford to win the African Nations cup in the guise of Nigeria?

    I guess it adds credence to the Bachmann leaving rumour. I wonder what Foster X Factor means?

    WTE captained Nigeria to another World Cup qualifier win. 2-0 away to Liberia. They top their group, two points ahead of 2nd place Cape Verde, with one match remaining - at home to Cape Verde.

    Two goals in ten minutes by Sarr give Senegal a 2-0 first half lead against Congo in their World Cup qualifier.
