The Hornets boss was pleased with what he saw against Southampton WatfordFC
Sound and solid defending, and the speed at which Watford then turned defence into attack were the positives that head coach Rob Edwards took away from the 0-0 friendly draw with Southampton.
“I thought we looked hard to beat, and we were able to turn defence into attack and look a threat. I was pleased with the way we had prolonged spells of pressure.“They had one or two half chances but we had one or two good chances. If I’m disappointed it's that we weren’t ruthless enough at the top end of the pitch to get a goal.”“The lads said after the game they felt that,” said Edwards. “They felt we were compact and tight.
“We talked about it at half time and that we were seeing more space outside and down the sides. In the second half I thought Joao Pedro in particular showed a lot of maturity to get into areas that gave us outlet and allowed us to get down the sides of the pitch.
