TEAM INFORMATION

View attachment 459428

As you can see they have very decent youth and training facilities which is always useful when managing a side to make the most out of the player potentials.

THE TEAM

Goalkeepers
View attachment 459427

Almunia is a decent keeper and will do the job for the Championship however when you get into the BPL you may need to look for a replacement. Bond is a young keeper and should be used as back up for your replacement keeper when bought

Right and Left Backs

The left back position is definetly one you need to strengthen as Pudil is the only natural left back. Cassetti is a decent right back along side Faraoni and they will do the job for the first season.

Right and Left Midfielders

You will need to bring in a left midfielder however I am relying on my left backs that can play in the LM position as Watford are still not meeting the Financial Fair Play requirements. The right mid position is very strong and I recommend using Murray as your 1st team choice with Anya has a back up, they both have pace so their decent wingers for this league.

Centre Midfielders
View attachment 459417

Your Central midfield position is by far the strongest in the side as you have a lot of attack minded players. With another DM kind of player maybe you could bring in on loan the midfield will be very well balanced. Your first choice centre mids should be Abdi and Battachio.

Strikers
View attachment 459416

You should almost certainly bring in a new striker that is capable of finishing well. Deeney will not be able to play all season and Acuna is not much use.

RECOMMENDED SIGNINGS

If you choose to get into the playoffs you will get 4 million with a 20k wage budget. I advise you not to spend it all as the club is not meeting the FFP requirements. So here are some signings I made to help me get into the BPL.

IN

Alexander Buttner - Man Utd (Loan)

Apostolos Vellios - Everton (Loan)

Harry Kane - Tottenham (Loan)

Samba Diakite - QPR (Loan)

Jelle Vossen - Genk (1.2m)

OUT

Ross Jenkins - 300k

In my Watford save I won promotion after coming 2nd in the league and got into the Semi Finals of the Capital One Cup.


 
how have you managed this watford side to success! im born and raised in watford, my hometown club so i always use them on football manager and i just cant seem to get any success out of them. ive started 3 seperate games with them and have been sacked once and the other two ive stopped because i was lower than 18th in december. no tactic, no signings work. they are just ******* awful in this game. and im not a poor manager either i dont think, ive played with other teams and been pretty decent. just watford i cant do anything with!
 
I've started a game with Watford, thought they had a good squad and I always saw them struggle.
 
There squad is decent now they have signed all the players from Udinese etc. Make sure you use Fabbrini when available hes a god!
 
I'm not being funny but you sound and probably are a bit of a **** head if you don't like what people post don't read it or even make a account
He was a troll/idk as trolls are least make some people laugh? he was going abusing in every other thread, banned now.
 
I stated a Watford save and all I signed was a free Greek RWB and a experienced free CB.
Only lost one game away to Brighton. Beat Man Utd in the Capitol one cup and currently in December.
The tactic I use is similar to the 532 steel defence tactic already on FMBase. Last time I did this good in a save was with Juve and a similar tactic.

He looks like ****, only dribbling is a good skill he possess.
 
I'm loving my save with Watford this year. I'll post some screenies later.
