I know it's about achieving etc as Marti says, but you know what, we played well today.
Our Achilles heal of not being able to score / take chances bit us again.
Plenty of positives from today, not the result of course
This is miles away from getting beaten and playing terribly. [Post edited 14 Jan 2024 14:09]

In fairness to Dunne at least he backed up Colback and tried to block the shot, a bit of effort un-matched by JCS who seemed to have time to raise his arm for an offside and spectate on what was going on around him. | | | |

Baz agree with all your posts on this game, called it right, and
Agree with your key point being today we missed an in-form Chair & Willock who contributed very little between them as others all had decent games and just a shame our match winners were'nt match-fit today. | | | |

we can play well , we can create chances but not scoring enough goals is killing us. playing well don't get wins, we NEED GOAL SCORERS now. | | | |

Really?
I don't know. We had several clear-cut chances - five compared to Watford's one. From memory a free header for Armstrong and Dunne, and an open goal for Colback, and a one on one for Armstrong, plus another one?. We had seven chances on target to their two. We had more possession and an expected goal ratio of 1.57 to 0.43. If we'd had those stats and won, I'd say we'd been pretty lucky.
Obviously none of that counts if you don't score but I don't think overall they deserved to win.
We do need to improve in a lot of areas still but it was an enjoyable match. I think Marti will run out of time unfortunately to turn things around. | | | |

It was in the corner but Begovic's footwork wasnt great. | |

If there was ever a game that encapsulated our predicament at the moment, that was it.
We should of won that game on chances. We need a finisher upfront.
I love Armstrong and he was good today but he has to stick at least one of those away today and probably two.
Yes, I know money restrictions, but we've had this problem going back in the last 3/4 transfer windows. | |

I criticised Dykes above for not closing down quick enough but in fairness he did but having re-watched it, that's some strike, outside of far post and swung back and inside post, wouldn't criticise Begovic either, not many keepers are saving that shot. | | | |

Exactly this
They have shown us this time and again | | | |

Nix, we stopped being ‘unlucky’ well over a year ago and at this point ‘deserving’ counts for absolutely nothing.
It was an enjoyable match and that’s what I’m trying to focus on. I’m over reading into performances, I’m just taking each game as it comes. I think given our form and the general uncertainty around the club there’s not much else you can do.
At least the away kit looks great this season, will definitely get myself one. | | | |

I agree with you, it's pretty awful. And deserving doesn't get points.
I just don't think it's true that they deserved to win, either.
Also, weirdly we seem to have a lot of new fans. Particularly younger people. Always something to focus on.
As for on the pitch, it's hard to imagine us getting another point at the moment, despite improved performances. | | | |

It's one of the things that points to poor/inadequate coaching, but according to some here, it's all down to the players every time. The players aren't good or consistent enough, granted, but quite why Cifuentes apparently hasn't noted, for example, that Paal can't take free kicks, and instead persists in having us do the same thing again and again while hoping for a different result, i.e. succumbing to madness, is mystifying.

Yep, with you on that one. At least shake it up a little, but Paal has been pretty poor at those dead balls for a while now...
Not good enough all round really... | |

When you watch Rangers in the ground you really see how flat and one dimensional we are, lack of movement through midfield and slow build ups. Watford although nothing great about them could turn the game through taking their chances well through Livermore. I love going to QPR but I fell out of love with most of these players a while back, we should have gone down last season we didn't through luck more than judgement and we are pretty much on course to go down this season, as we are a poor team. The results and statistics speak for themselves. | | | |

Thought he should have done better with second but on reflection he was going going to get near the first.
Still Hamer is one year younger and looked a lot more mobile than Begovich.
He was MOTM for me . | | | |

I noticed Dixon Bonner took one (free kick) in the second half. That was MUCH better. | | | |

We did deserve to lose because we created several great opportunities to score and came nowhere near scoring them. gave them two chances, one gilt edged and conceded. Not entirely sure what a team that does that deserves other than to lose? | | | |
