The Pozzo family’s takeover of Watford in 2012 might not have reaped immediate rewards, but it’s fair to say the club are in much better shape now than they were then.
The club’s final pre-Pozzo season brought an 11th-place finish in the Championship, with a squad made up of few players you’d have considered too good for the second tier at the time, managed by then-rookie Sean Dyche.
Watford’s turnaround might not have been as sudden as that undergone by FA Cup semi-final opponents Wolves, but the contrast between then and now is no less dramatic, as emphasised by the starting XI and subs who beat Middlesbrough in Dyche’s final game in charge.
