And reality rears its ugly head.
The inability to defend against set pieces and a collapse of morale after the third goal, tagged the Hornets with one of their worse routs in recent memory Saturday.
Blame was laid in a number of laps, the demoralizing departure of Martin Taylor for Sheffield Wednesday, the steady shuffling of new players into and out of the line-up perhaps, but it was just plain old-fashioned poor defending against set-pieces that left Watford staggering as Derby took complete control of the match.
Matej Vydra found his third goal in four matches for the only bright spot of the day.
It's time to settle into a starting line-up, train as a squad and gel into a winning team. There will be plenty of opportunity to train (minus a few internationals) as the next match is not until Saturday, September 15 at Bolton. Kickoff is 9:00 an St. Louis time.
