Sheffield Wednesday should've beat Watford - but didn't

00:00 So, it's a frustrating point for Sheffield Wednesday. I think it says a lot about how
00:04 far they've come that they've played against Watford, which is obviously the same team
00:08 that Danny's first game came against, and they're disappointed to come away with a 0-0
00:12 draw. They're the first team in a long time that's stopped Watford scoring, but they're
00:17 also unfortunately the first team in a long time that Watford haven't conceded against.
00:22 It was a really good all-round performance from Wednesday. They were bright from the
00:26 start, they created lots of chances, Ugbo hit the post, Heyman made a couple of unbelievably
00:32 good saves against Anthony Massaba. On another day, Wednesday, they win this game, but that
00:37 day wasn't this one. Unfortunately, Wednesday, they're in the endgame now. I said it in my
00:42 match report, they're in the endgame and they can't afford to not win games when they deserve
00:46 to win games. That's unfortunately what happened today. Obviously, nobody's really that bothered
00:51 about the match today, considering it's transfer deadline day tomorrow. Everyone wants to know
00:55 what's going on. I did ask Danny about it afterwards, he doesn't seem to be too upbeat
01:03 about things happening. He wouldn't go into any sort of details. He said, I think it's
01:08 words, 'we're in extra time now and we'll cross our fingers and see what happens'. That's
01:12 the long and short of where things are at. Wednesday do have a point, it's not a loss,
01:17 so they've chipped away at that gap between themselves and Huddersfield. Saturday is huge,
01:23 it's a massive game. They'll say that it's not a must-win, that that game won't define
01:29 the season, but I think in many ways it is very much a must-win and Wednesday have got
01:33 to try and get something out of it. If they play like they did tonight, I think they'll
01:37 get something away at Huddersfield. They did some really nice passes, put together a lot
01:44 of nice moves and, like I say, desperately unlucky not to score on several occasions.
01:48 So, got to take the positives. Wednesday are disappointed, but got to move on now. Big
01:53 24 hours ahead, keep it locked on the start at Curragh UK. We'll have you covered in everything
02:00 that happens. Fingers crossed there's some incomings because Sheffield Wednesday certainly
02:05 need them. I'll speak to you soon. Cheers.
