Hornets' nest in chaos

The rumour mill has been suggesting that tomorrow's opponents Watford are posed to sack their coach Alessio Dionisi but it looks as if he might be staying on to succumb to the curse of Charlton tomorrow, but can Charlton take advantage of the disarray at Vicarage Road?https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cmd7qv7l2530o 

Having beaten 0-4 at home last week by Burnley and succumbed to Cardiff 5-1 away, making four successive defeats, the Hornets are now in the relegation zone.   Against Cardiff the Hornets were definitely fragile at the back, but still looked sharp at the back.

One can imagine the chorus of moaning from the armchair managers if Charlton fail to win at Watford, but doubts persist about our ability to score.  Miles Leaburn seems to be replacing Tyreece Campbell as this season's scapegoat player, with some fans saying he is not good enough even for League Two,but as someone pointed out if Haaland jumped ship from City he would have difficulty in getting service from our midfield.
