    devaney and Howard

    are the 2 most impressive footballers we have. You can see that they 'have it'.

    pepole may lambast Nads but if he could stay fit he'd bag 20+, no matter how lazy he is he knows where the net is.

    Agreed

    Currently, he is the best player at the club.

    As i said when he came he is a decent player who can score goals there was quite a few clubs after DEVALDO when he was at Cheltenham.

    He was 4th in the pecking order or something. So they agreed to let him go for nowt. Luckily for us!

    because he wasn't what we expected and he also wasn't very good. He has improved since then but he still isn't a Left Winger.

    Do you like any players?

    Or is it just the talented ones (Devaney, McPhail etc) that you find fault in constantly?

    RE: Do you like any players?

    I like all players that give a minimum of 100% and IMHO McPhail has never done that for us. I have already acknowledged that Devaney has improved since he first came but I still do not think that he is the answer to our Left Wing problem, he is better on the right. I was impressed with Hayes in his first game but again, IMHO he has not improved over the season and infact if anything he is less impressive now than he was then.
    These 3 "players" are the only ones that I have had disparaging things to say about.
    However, if they do show improvement, then I will also acknowledge that as well but they will have to improve by my standards, not yours because as yet you don't appear to have seen enough good football to be able to judge what is good or bad.

    Sometimes your face doesnt fit,dont know the other wide players at Watford but i do know that McNamee is quite highly rated.

    Obviously I wasn't overly impressed with him in the first few games, but I could see he had potential as he clearly had a lot of skill but just a lack of confidence and fitness. Credit to him and AR for getting that confidence back.

    Funny how you pick out three of our most talented players for your criticism.
