Cleverley smashes Watford.
Watford manager Tom Cleverley has criticized his team’s performance against Cardiff City, which resulted in a home loss. According to the Observer, he stated, “Look at how we started the game again.” Avoid giving hope to a team battling for survival and allowing them to disrupt the game.We committed more unforced errors than against Portsmouth. It meant we couldn’t build enough pressure, and we let them off the hook too many times through sloppiness and lack of attention. We had to accept defeat and recognize that, to a man, we were not good enough.”
Millwall manager David Livermore said on Sunday that he was uninformed of Alex Neil’s hiring, despite being on the incoming manager’s coaching staff.
“I’m probably as aware as you guys are,” Livermore remarked on Sunday. “I don’t believe it’s a secret, does it? However, as I have stated, this is all taking on behind the scenes. It’s really out of my control. It wasn’t on my mind today since I was focused on the game, and as I mentioned, there will be an announcement tomorrow.”
