    Both sides look lacking in confidence.

    "Bah?" Presumably because they resemble humbugs??

    Not the best game I have ever watched. Mistakes from both sides one after another.

    We are playing like the home side; controlling most possession, them counter-attacking.
    We are regaining, or more exactly, stealing possession back, just as we did last season. That was one of our great strengths, I thought, of last season. I think we've lacked that hugely so far this campaign.

    It's crap, yorkshire. I've just read on that that Dawson "scythed" his man for his yellow! It was a body checking, not a scything, and Doucoure "chopped down" Atsu. Er, no. It was a trip. That's all. But the BBC are trying to make it sound more dramatic.

    In short, Watford look better than Magpies.

    The 'threaded through' ball Watford have attempted this game has been horribly overhit every time.

    I want Sarr on. We saw him midweek, and he would surely unlock this Newcastle side.

    Hayden shoots from 25, moving nastily and Ben Foster tips it brilliantly.
