I'm assuming that's why RDZ needed emergency dental treatment?

Apparently, Hinshelwood steamed in feet first to break it up but cracked his foot on RDZ’s face and followed through snapping Pedro’s hamstring. Don’t shoot the messenger.
Igor had some involvement too but I’m not going into that tonight.

Back after the international break, according to RDZ in the pre-Forest press conference. Ditto with Milner.
I thought that. His number plate looks like it might say Watford
.Actually can see in reflection that it doesn't

have to say the recruitment last summer has taken a lot of criticism (justifiably imo) but joao pedro has been a remarkable signing. can count on one hand the players i’ve seen come in, play a couple of games and i’ve been able to tell straight away ‘yep, they’re going right to the top’
also has a knack of scoring when we desperately need it, we haven’t had nearly enough of those players over recent years. seemingly against my better judgement i went today (although now hugely glad i did!) and he was constantly geeing up the crowd at every break in play, and i think that really helped us over the line. so that’s at least one player who’s definitely still bothered

Chap next to me as he stood over the penalty said “he’s the best taker in the world, I’d put my house on him scoring”. He went through quite a few emotions in the course of about 3-4 seconds.

21 goals in all competitions so far this season, yet I overheard the bloke behind me, on the P&R bus, going to the game, that we hadn’t got a decent striker.
£30m was a snip for a player of his quality. He's an excellent player, and still only 22. I really expect him to go on and be a star for a team competing for the Champions League and be a mainstay for Brazil.
Hopefully we can get another 2/3 seasons from him before he inevitable goes on to Real/Man City

It's because penalties don't count. Which is why he missed and scored the rebound instead.

He was moaning saying we should have Solanke (18) or Eze (8) and surely Bournemouth or Palace can’t be paying better wages than us.

Sounds like a case of the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence to me.
Solanke and Eze are both very good players but they're also both very different types f players. I'd happily have both in the squad but I wouldn't swap either for our Brazilian superstar.

Nor me and I had to bite my tongue to stop myself from turning round and telling him we are lucky to have Pedro. I think some of our fans just don’t appreciate what we do have.
He is just brilliant. Comfortably my POTS.
This season would have been a disaster without him. He’s a joy to watch.

Yep
Would it count i a shoot out? No. Therefore does it count as a miss? Yes.
