Up next in our series of members articles, which assess the statistics behind the 2015/16 season, is Watford.

We start off by looking at the Hornets’ team data in Quique Sanchez Flores’ solitary campaign at the helm and compare them to the rest of Premier League. After that, we analyse their first-team squad, main goal threats and creative sources in an attempt to gain insight on their prospects for the season ahead.

Tipped for the drop by many last time out, the Hornets were quick out the traps and racked up eight wins and five draws in the first 18 Gameweeks. Although Flores’ side failed to maintain momentum over the rest of the season and managed just four victories and as many draws in the final 20 matches, they were never in danger of relegation and ended in thirteenth spot, eight points clear of the bottom three.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Mertesacker out for five months is great news for Arsenal fans. Now the french fool will HAVE to sign a centre back. Of course there's always the chance he's going to sign another mediocre one but let's hope he can sign a good one instead.

      Dodgy loan signing incoming...

      They bought a CB the other day, didnt they? They also have chambers lol. Wouldnt be surprised if Wenger didnt buy another CB

      Poor Wenger takes so much stick...I feel sorry for the bloke. All I can see is a great team with some great players that most fans in the country would give their back teeth to watch.

      I read Cesc's comments about him the other day.....I prefer his opinion of Wenger....nice.

        I hear you and I largely agree BUT there comes a point where you have to say, "okay, I actually have to stop bullshitting the fans whom pay so much..."

        1. Dr Dream
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          It's probably worth remembering that just about all their rivals have spent time seriously bombing over the years at times....United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs etc....sometimes seriously as well.

          Wenger deserves credit for having kept an even keel of a team for a long time now, and that's not easy...only money bags City can claim similar. His big problem of course has been a lack of trophies of late, but the quality of football at times has been fantastic.

          1. Ser Davos
            • 10 Years

            Absolutely fascinating character and situation at Arsenal.

            Again, I agree with you (particularly as neither of us are Gunners) but I strongly feel he now needs to be more proactive and aggressive in the market. By all means don't chuck money like the rest but look at a balance. At the very least try and be a bit more transparent with the fans. The Suarez bid summed it up for me.

    4. Pariße

      I think it's still bad news. Wenger will be like 'we've already bought a CB and we have young players mature enought o prove themselves on a top level'.

  2. vova

    Is Terry nailed on for the first three or so games? Would he be a better option than Azpi?

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      He is nailed for the first few games but is it worth it

      1. vova
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        I'm planning to WC after GW3 so its between him and Azpi.

    2. Alan Hansen's Emu
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      If you can afford Azpi go for him.

    If you HAD to play a £5M MF - who is the best in that price bracket?

    1. Numb
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Allen

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Good shout

    2. Ziegler1988

      Gray

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Will he play?

        1. Ziegler1988
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Not sure, but could be worth a flier.

    3. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Can't you just go 4-3-3 in that case? Should be better value from a 5.0 def than a 5.0 mid.

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Probably more sensible... but not as fun!

        1. Slartibartfast
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Fair point - although there are a few of 5.0 defenders who'd be fun to punt on too, in your situation. Ayala and PvA would be top of my list!

          1. Ser Davos
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            Williams for bappage

              • 10 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              Definitely a good shout too, with their opening two fixtures.

          2. Alan Hansen's Emu
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            Yeah true, I just have a mental block on spending on DF vs MF haha

      James McClean

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu

        Best shout so far.

          Thanks bud 😉

      Morrison. On pens?

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Had considered too.. unsure about penos

    6. spiritof82
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      If Watmore of Sunderland plays - given he's listed as a midfielder - could be a good OOP differential for 5M.

      1. Alan Hansen's Emu
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers. Wasnt on my radar.

          1. spiritof82
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            Worth remembering too that Leroy Fer scored 6 goals in the PL for QPR in 2014/15 and 3 for Norwich the season before that. Great shot on him. He's only 5M and Swansea have a couple of decent opening fixtures.

    7. Get in ma Dembele
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Liverpool's Grujic is performing well pre season, if he carries on scoring he might be awarded a start

  4. Emiliano Sala
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    what do U think about strikers ?
    A ) 3 great strikers ?
    B ) 2 great + 1 normal ?

    lukaku or costa ?!

    1. brianutd-why always we? 20
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      B Lukaku

  5. ryacoo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Which 2 would you pick:

    A) Mahrez
    B) Hazard
    C) KDB

    Also, anyone know when Hazard/KDB will be joining their teams for pre-season?

    1. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      B+C, but I'm tempted by Mahrez for the Hull game at least.

    2. DantheManinaPan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I'm on A + B, but very concerned about missing KDB. Just can't have them all. Very hard to pick the premiums

      1. ryacoo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        My gut says to go for Mahrez because he's the only one who's already started pre-season, hasn't had the international games over the summer, etc. But I just don't know how I can leave out KDB or Haz with those opening fixtures they each have.

    3. Däzzy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Ab

  6. OLLY G
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    (A) Ayew and Tadic

    (B) Mkh and Philips

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      A

    2. Däzzy
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      B

      1. bici
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        I have Mkh, but between those two options, i would say A

  7. GoonerByron
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    If I go expensive at the back in GW1 with Baines, Terry, Dann do you think I'll be safe with only one nailed 4.5 on the bench and then a 4.0 for 5th sub?

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Probably not.

    2. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Yes. Just pretend it's a game where you get 14 players instead of 15 and you'll be fine.

    3. A.T
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I might do this. Get a low owned 4.0 that was never expected to start under any circumstances to avoid price drops.

      1. Däzzy
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Me too - Alex Bruce. lol

        1. A.T
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Good one. Now his Dad's gone he'll be back to cleaning boots 😀

          1. Däzzy
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            😀

            • 14 Years

            He is injured for 6 months anyway

            1. A.T
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              Perfect.

              1. A.T
                • 15 Years
                9 years, 9 months ago

                Er gutted for the lad obviously 😮

                1. JK - Cønt ⭐
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 14 Years
                  9 years, 9 months ago

                  I may go with a 4.0 defender but with Gabriel in my team it forces me to play him in the 1st 2 weeks as I can't use Kone

      2. GoonerByron
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers all.. Think this is a route I may take. Will be happy to start those 3 for at least the first 5 weeks (or until not nailed) and all have great attacking potential.

      3. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        That's the way. Sooner or later a 4.0 will become available...then pounce...Your 4.0 initial pick is just a place holder.

      4. Ser Davos
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah, I'm all set on both a 4m keeper and a 4m dead-low-ownership-defender.

    4. Netley Lucas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Similar plan here, just don't buy a popular 4.0.

      1. MrMaverick
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        paredes 16% ownership lool

    5. Bedknobs and Boomsticks
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Its not uncommon for me to finish a season with a dead defender, but its risky from the start as you may need your bench unexpectedly Worth considering IMO.

  8. andrinho
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    A) Long
    or
    B) Gray?

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      A

    2. Slartibartfast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      B, unless Long is a guaranteed starter now and I've missed something..?

      1. ryacoo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Pelle left, Austin and Long are the only strikers at Southampton currently and the new manager prefers 2 upfront. Long was first choice and in form at the end of last season too.

        1. Slartibartfast
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Ah I was under the impression that they'd be playing 4-2-3-1.

          1. Jazz!
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            He plays a weird fluid system, I saw a write-up on his system which Lucy posted yesterday. Don't have the link 🙁

            1. MrMaverick
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              true, that. Almost two false 9s ahead of a #10

              1. Jazz!
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 9 months ago

                Yep, hard to explain.

                1. MrMaverick
                  • 9 Years
                  9 years, 9 months ago

                  similar to guidolin's Swansea

                  1. Slartibartfast
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 9 months ago

                    Gotcha. So Saints forwards and Tadic back on the radar 🙂

                    1. Slartibartfast
                      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                      • 10 Years
                      9 years, 9 months ago

                      And Redmond

          2. Netley Lucas
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 9 months ago

            More like a 4-3-3 I think, with Tadic at times getting ahead of the other 2 (Long & Austin), like Redmond did in that friendly when Tadic wasn't fully fit.

            1. Jazz!
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              Yeah. Redmond played as a false 9 with Austin and JRod alongside him. Like MrMaverick said above, similar to Swansea. Siggy playing that false 9 role almost.

            2. MrMaverick
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              fully agree, cruyff explains it perfectly here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NZ0byEyeOA worth noting Redmond scored twice playing that role

              1. Jazz!
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 9 months ago

                Yep, would be interesting to see who plays there.

    3. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Prefer B from them 2 but Austin over both.

      1. ryacoo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 9 months ago

        Why Austin over Long? Just cos of pre-season so far?

        1. Jazz!
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          Don't really care about pre season, I just rate Austin a lot higher than Long in terms of goal scoring.

              • 11 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              I'm going with the early GW4 one so Austin wins in the first 3 fixtures for me.

                That's a great shout on the first three fixtures

    2. A.T

      Could do worse.

    3. Bedknobs and Boomsticks

    1. Jøssy ⭐
      • 11 Years

      Been debating this. I've been on Townsend ever since launch, but Gerry is very tempting now

  13. OLLY G
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    I'm still not sure if my FF strategy is a bit flawed. I'm probably gonna to go for the Heaton/Foster combo and atm am probably picking Ayew. Even though Burnley have a better GW1 fixture than West Brom - Swansea H vs Palace A - should l start Foster because l have Ayew?

      Start whoever you think has the best chance of scoring mist points, regardless if who else is in your team. At least that's what I do. It's probably wrong.

    9 years, 9 months ago

    I've now reached that point in the pre-season where I completely rip up my defence and start again in an objective manner.

    So far, I think I may start off without any elite defenders. None of them have fixtures that are overly good, and by loosing Shaw I can get something like:

    EVE (5.5 - 5.0), CPL (5.0), MID (4.5), LEI (5.5 - 5.0), WHM or SUN (5.0 or 4.5)

    Gives a really nice 5 way rotation up until at least GW8, by which time I'll probably want to WC ayway

      Good player

  20. Dr Dream
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 9 months ago

    Somebody mentioned earlier that Baines and Martinez didn't get on. I don't know if that's true or not but has there been any other rumours of problems that way last season with other players?...

    1. d1sable
      • Has Moderation Rights
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Baines is the most passive guy going, not sure how you could fall out with him

    2. A.T
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      Martinez forced Baines to apologise for comments made in the media about there being a lack of spark in the squad. This at the same time Lukaku was telling everyone how great he is and where he'd like to play without reprisal. That was the nail in the coffin for the last few Evertonians, like me, who were prepared to give him time.
      He also fell out with Mirallas after the Baines pen fiasco 18 months ago and hardly played him again. Eto was another earlier on, who sussed him quite quickly before an early departure. Distin too although he was a knobb anyway.

          Dunno. Not picking until closer to season opening.

    Some plans here. The team is:

    Foster Jakupovic
    Shaw Baines Friend Francis Lowton
    Miki Nolito Ayew Bolasie Feghouli
    Aguero Vardy Austin

    For GW 3 I would do Ayew to EVE mid. The bad thing is I am screwed if some expensive mid show some form. Would be hard to get him.

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 9 months ago

      I like it but Baines -> Stones/Jags and Friend -> Gabriel

        2. Stupendous
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 9 months ago

          My Pool obsessed scouser pal seems to really really think Ings can and might get the nod this year under Klopp. To start the season that is.

          He did a poor job of explaining why, other than that Ings is a Klopp type player, and has scored a couple times preseason.

          Liverpool fans?

          At what 6m, or 6.5 maybe, isn't he a genuine option?

          Starting fifth cheapie mid to come in if not, then a one stop fix for the first cheap third striker who bangs them in week one.

            i like ings, but i seriously doubt he'll be first choice. Towards the later end of last season Klopp preferred Origi in the big games so he could be a cheaper option to keep an eye on.

            1. Stupendous
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 9 months ago

              Was Ings fully fit? Dunno just curious.

              He would be a mega bargain if he can nail a spot
