AdamRam Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 28 minutes ago, Wolfie20 said: So if you build a team around one player who is real quality (and I think Hughes still has much more to give - still only 22 after all), what happens if that player gets a serious injury that keeps him out for over 12 months? That's a very risky strategy Possibly, however if you build a team around a player normally you bring in players that complement them, then hopefully should that happen you are able to adapt and cover. The alternative is to sell the player and bring in a replacement or two that don’t perform, all risky I’d say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it gets us out the division then fair enough, however I’d question that we are getting the results that are better than when Hughes was playing and when we played with style.

Think everyone would love style to go hand in hand with points...... but I’d be happier if we have to dig in at times and concede getting the result over style.

GboroRam Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Why does this question even exist? Style or results? Is it ether/or? Do you have to choose? I'm not happy unless it's both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBA were also flying high last season I think it was, they may stay there they may not, however they still don’t sell out every week. That’s with a capacity of under 25k, I wonder if that will increase or decrease when fans get used to being established in the PL at the cost of entertainment. Take Derby, we are in the play offs yet our attendances are down, seems some fans do like to be entertained over results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highgate Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Some comments from a Watford fan site: 'Poor first half. Carrillo, Rich and Pereyra providing no quality Get Hughes on asap' 'The albino Iniesta made a huge difference.' 'I love will hughes' 'Hughes is our best attacking mid.' Seems like they are starting to appreciate what they have, I hope Will goes from strength to strength, such a lovely player to watch, even when he is wearing the wrong colour shirt.
