    I'm sure he's on more than that. Would be happy if I'm wrong though!

    Could be a big player for us at this level IF he can get/stay fit.

    Needs a run of games.

    The former Granada man switched agents earlier this year in a bid to engineer a move away from Watford this summer but a transfer is almost impossible for the time being because he is currently on the sidelines due to injury.

    18 league starts and two league goals in four years. Contracted to us until 2023. Sigh.

    This has to be his level - he might surprise us if he can lay off the party girls

    Definitely - I mean he's done it at some top, top clubs like Granada, so should blitz the championship.

    I think we saw some of the best football Success played here when he was played through the middle as a lone striker under Javi.

    He was superb up at Wolves when we beat them 0-2 and he was also excellent against a strong Spurs side in the League Cup at MK Dongs.

    Then he lost his place due to players returning. A shame really because I don't think he's anywhere near as bad as a lot of people make him out to be.

    Don't really get your point? Are you trying to say he's past it now? Are you trying to say he's outdated? Are you trying to say he's no good. An odd comparison.

    He can't be relied upon and is currently broken down.
    He's also got a dodgy stick.

    If he can get himself fit and motivated he has a chance to make the team this year. His last chance with us I feel

    Basically been a constant disappointment other than his first few games.

    What a way to waste all that potential :(

    Positive Judgements in the long run can be found out. Based on a career of 8-12 years he is now 6 years in - 112 appearances, 9 goals. It does not matter if he got a few rave reviews. Basically time has shown he is no good.

    He also needs to learn to stay upright Bubbs, for a big old unit he gets knocked off the ball and onto his butt by the slightest touch.
    I watched his debut in a pre-season match way back and he looked the real deal, since then he has got slower, and lazier. All that potential wasted.

    Spot on. I honestly thought that he could push on after those displays. He can and should be an absolute nightmare to play against but as mentioned he goes down far to easily and needs a run of games. I believe he will suprise a few this season if and when he gets on opportunity.

    Seemed really odd to let a contracted player conduct his own rehab in Dubai. Indicated that the club can't be arsed with him any more. Shame, he was entertaining if nothing else.

    Deulofeu did his own rehab in Spain for the most part. If they're more comfortable recovering away from the UK then let it be as it's not underheard of; in fact for foreign players it's very common. Whether the club are looking to keep him or not, they won't let an asset go AWOL while in rehab as if nothing else it's a waste of money.

    Agreed - doesn’t make any sense. I didn’t think hookers were allowed in Dubai?

    Shocking to think that this guy played 30 mins in an FA cup final less than 18m ago.

    It's not just the getting knocked down that winds me up. It's how long he stays down, waving his arms at the ref, while the ball heads down the other end. We are effectively playing with 10 men, while he slowly gets to his feet and is in an offside position.

    This sort of thing drives me mad. Sure, he might be dense enough to think that's a good idea, but after once or twice, you'd hope a coach would get hold of him and give him a rollicking and tell him to stop it.

    Ok, for certain skills, behaviours, I imagine it's difficult to coach players. You can't magic a player into being able to whip in a brilliant cross time after time, but it should be easy to coach Success to use his upper body strength to say upright, or at least get off his arse 2 minutes more quickly after toppling over. Things never seem to change though for some players.

    Best example of the above is against Boro a couple years back. Beats two defenders in his bull in a china shop style, goes down dramatically (did look a foul to be fair), Boro get the ball back, take a second, clear the ball, camera shows Isaac doing a confused face (still on the floor), Watford win the ball back, Isaac is still on the floor, Holebas sets himself, Isaac is still on the floor, Holebas scores, Isaac is still on the floor, Holebas celebrates, Isaac is still on the floor.

    A full 10 seconds of sitting on his arse feeling sorry for himself, and he only got up because we scored. If we hadn't, I'd wager he'd still be on the Riverside turf to this day.

    He was great that day. Barragan couldn't handle him and should have had about four yellow cards. Suppose that's the most frustrating thing about him, there's a player in there somewhere but bet he never performs consistently anywhere for his whole career.

    I think Success is garbage, but he likes every single social media post Watford FC put out so at least his attitude is good. Give him the armband.

    I think there's a potential great player in there. The trouble is his attitude ain't geared towards improving as a player. Pay me £30k a week and i'll like every post of whatever the hell you want me to.

    In my opinion his worst was at Woking, he's playing a team 5 divisions lower than us and he still looks for the dive than actually trying to stay on his feet and conjure up something. The ref booked him within the first 20 minutes for diving and then he did sod all for the rest of the time he was on the pitch.

    That was certainly a new low. He looked like he'd downed a litre of Bailey's ten minutes before kick off.

    I think he had the potential to be as good as someone like Antonio, but squandered it through having a poor mentality.
