On a similar note, I heard Kieran Maguire state on the Price of Football this week that we have Sheikh Mansour and Roman Abramovich to thank for increasing the profile of the Premier League, which then in turn attracted more investors and therefore increased the competitiveness of the league. Odd

We (Watford) looked pretty out on our feet in midweek, and injuries/suspensions are hampering our ability to rotate the squad. So it’ll be a relatively weak side we put out, and we’ve ridden our luck at home on several occasions. I’m concerned!
