PeterHOST
Of course they won't.
CadenAUDIENCE
Especially not Eduardo Bove.
CadenAUDIENCE
I think he's going to be out for a very long time in the club.
CadenAUDIENCE
He'll be very snide about it.
Ben AitonHOST
No blame for me on Hector Kipirano yesterday.
Ben AitonHOST
And if you saw off his right arm, his right leg even, with Bove not next to him, He's gained completely changes.
Ben AitonHOST
He's playing next to someone in midfield who shouldn't be playing in midfield because he has no awareness for oppositions.
Ben AitonHOST
He doesn't know how to pass ball quickly.
Duncan RadbandGUEST
He'd be more backup to Bravo and potentially Pichero, who has played the attacking midfielder when Bravo's been rotated out.
Duncan RadbandGUEST
So I don't quite know what you can do.
Duncan RadbandGUEST
As you say, we only have Bove, Kipriano, Kayembe, and Pichero as your central midfield options.
Duncan RadbandGUEST
Five, if you include Amir as a spam, which DNAC hasn't, which is fair enough.
SamPANELIST
Second is?
JasonPANELIST
Eduardo Bove.
JasonPANELIST
Okay.
JasonPANELIST
Well, yeah, he didn't play last night.
NedHOST
And on Saturday, when you're having to play one of your three senior central midfielders, KM Bay, you know, he has his flaws, but he has to go and play left back.
NedHOST
So then you're going, well, if one of Kipriano and Bove get injured, you've got no depth behind that.
NedHOST
And of course, now we know.
NedHOST
You know, a silly challenge, a bit of head loss from Bove.
NedHOST
And now he's going to miss Preston.
NedHOST
So you're looking at it going, who's going to play left back and who's going to play in midfield? Especially when you've got, you know, Duxbury and Dowling going on podcasts and talking about how we've got so much depth in midfield.
7 MINS LATER
JamesHOST
No, no, no, we'll start with number five.
JamesHOST
We've already spoken about two of these players already, interestingly, so we don't need to cover them.
PeterHOST
You know?
GregAUDIENCE
So much better with Bove with him, yeah.
PeterHOST
Well, but Bove, the, the, the, the thing is with Bove, he almost defies statistics, if that makes sense.
PeterHOST
Because-
GregAUDIENCE
Yeah
PeterHOST
Vic Bate there, "Can't afford to re- to rest Bravo." You're not wrong, he's absolutely the, the creative heart of everything.
GregAUDIENCE
Right.
PeterHOST
We were talking about Bove-
Luke DowlingGUEST
So now he's had a pre-season, I think it was, I think the fluency in the game for him on a personal note was a big thing.
Luke DowlingGUEST
And the first 45 minutes in that game was the first time I saw, right now I know what the noise is about with Bove.
Luke DowlingGUEST
And I think since the league started, I think he's been absolutely brilliant for us in there.
Luke DowlingGUEST
And I think more importantly, his performances on a match day is how he is around the place.
PeterHOST
when you see when they're not there and I think the first half we saw the energy the bite that Eduardo Bove brings to our midfield and I thought for me it was absent in that first half gaps started appearing we didn't get around and about them in the same way as as we did.
PeterHOST
No blame, no pack drill on this particular moment, but you've got to see exactly what you miss when Bovey's not in there because it's energy, it's bite, it's tenacity.
PeterHOST
You get to win the second ball and we didn't really win the second ball.
PeterHOST
66% of possession they had in the first half, so they literally had the ball twice as much as we did.
PeterHOST
Greg, are you there? You're on mute, mate.
GregAUDIENCE
Tonight, by the better team, first 20 minutes, we weren't at the races, though we got better.
GregAUDIENCE
Surprised as soon as Bovey came in and we tightened up that midfield.
GregAUDIENCE
But you are quite right, Pete.
HarryAUDIENCE
And I'm worried that we could see him go in the next couple of days just because how great he is playing.
HarryAUDIENCE
Another one, as Wendover said before, Bove.
HarryAUDIENCE
Bove was the heart and soul of this team today.
HarryAUDIENCE
And when he signed for the club, I got him on the back of my shirt.
HarryAUDIENCE
I tend to not get anything on the back of my shirt, I felt with him, he will come good at some point, and I'm glad he's starting to do that.

CarlHOST
Matty Pollock would put his head in front of a train at the moment.
CarlHOST
And the work rate in that midfield is unbelievable.
CarlHOST
But the issue we're going to have is, like it's already been said, Bove was absolutely knackered after 70 minutes.
JasonPANELIST
I think he has quite a hard role with that midfield.
JasonPANELIST
Clearly, it looks like Bove is the runner.
JasonPANELIST
He gets forward more often than Kip does.
JasonPANELIST
And Kip then, if the other team counters, he's having to do a lot of running around, protecting that defence.
8 MINS LATER
CharliePANELIST
Matty Pollock made a couple of heroic blocks.
CharliePANELIST
But I just think the way we were set up in a kind of 4-4-2 with Bravo and Kieran Gore as the two kind of pressing and those two banks of four, Really tight.
CharliePANELIST
I thought Bove was a lot more defensive-minded yesterday.
CharliePANELIST
We've seen in pre-season he was getting back and forth quite a lot, but I thought he was quite close to Kipriano all the time and I thought we were quite watertight in our shape.
JamesHOST
He could be an absolutely outstanding addition.
JamesHOST
I totally agree about the profile and somebody that we want to stretch defences and be somebody to occupy those centre-halves by moving around them, behind them, across them, because... having his movement and then uh bravo's movement could be really complex for centre-backs to deal with compared to what we have at the moment so really excited by the prospect of him and and I'm not saying that they're the same, but I think the club will be talking to Bouadou and saying, look at Bove, look at how Bravo has started.
JamesHOST
Some of these players that have come to us this season, and don't get me wrong, you're coming to Watford for a reason at the moment, but... we're trying to get them back to where they want to be.
JamesHOST
And I think Boadu would 100% see his career be back in Europe's top flight somewhere.
JamesHOST
But if we can be that springboard for him and he's playing off Bravo, he's playing off Mama, he's playing off Bove, that could be really powerful.
JamesHOST
So I am excited by that one.
JamesHOST
Be interested to know how much of a pre-season he's had and how fit he would be.
NedHOST
So he's gone.
