Emergency Podcast: Gracia's Second Coming – Can He Save Watford's Season? In this emergency episode of Voices of the Vic, Ben is joined by Joe to react to the breaking news that Paulo Pezzolano has been sacked as Watford head coach. The Hornets have turned to a familiar face, re-appointing Javi Gracia, the man who guided the club to their highest-ever Premier League finish and a memorable FA Cup final in the 2018/19 season. We break down the decision to part ways with Pezzolano, what Gracia's return could mean for the rest of the campaign, and whether the former fan favourite can revive Watford's fortunes at Vicarage Road. Is this the spark the Hornets need, or another short-term fix in a long line of changes?

Is it an emergency podcast? the past couple of weeks have felt like a slow death for Watford Boss Paulo Pezzolano, culminating in his sacking on Wednesday morning and the subsequent announcement that former Hornets boss Javi Gracia would take charge!Ned and James discuss all the news that came out alongside the statement of Gracia's hiring. Whether the sacking of Pezzolano was justified, and was the hiring of Gracia the right decision?Do the squad fit to what Gracia wants to play? it's been 6 years since Javi was in charge of the Hornets, football has moved on. Will he be able to adjust and keep up to the hectic style of the Championship? and how are the boys feeling about the next 6 games with a new manager in charge.Let us know your thoughts! leave us a comment on Spotify or reach out on social media.
