He was one player that could go past people, scored a great goal, could have had a hat-trick first half, even second half.
He's direct, he wants to run at people, and with a run of games, obviously he had the injury before this.
You can see that he could be someone that can really make a difference in this team.
You know, I still I've said it a few times tonight.
I said it before the game.
I still think this Watford side looks better with Troy Deeney in it when you get runners off him because he holds the ball up.
Because second half, when you're under pressure, you need someone who's just going to keep hold of the ball and just relax the team.
Because every time the ball went forward, when you're under pressure, it kept coming back.
And that's a big problem.
You know, it's like Kevin played with target men all his life.
But sometimes you need someone who's going to do that for you, Kevin.
It's not working without him, is it?
That's the thing.
If it was working, he'd be keeping a big character out of the team.
I get it, but it's not.
Well, it's Watford.
They love sacking managers there.
They've done it time and time again.
As soon as a manager comes under pressure, the first thing to do is to fire them.
And sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
