    Said in the NOTW that he struggled to get into the game and was only given 5/10.

    I thought he would start causing defences real problems as he looked ver good against Wigan and Fulham.

    The fact he was completely dropped against Liverpool must have knocked his confidence hugely and that could be part of the reason for a lacklusture performance. Reason though not an excuse.

    In his defence, we kept playing the ball to his head, he's no target man, the odd few times he got the ball at his feet he looked alright. BUT i agree his work rate doesn't help his cause. He hardly endears himself to the Watford faithful when he's not playing well and not working hard.

    Against Wigan we we're getting the ball on the ground, getting the ball out wide, Priskin looked better, as did the whole team. Less long ball please!

    Priskin has got talent, I have no doubt about that. I think the problem is he really doesn't fit in to our long ball style. He is reasonably tall, but just not strong enough to hold is own in that situation. Why can't we play the ball to his feet, and allow him to bring in other player to the attack. I honestly thought Hoskins and Priskin would be good together, with Bouazza and Smith on the wings providing some reasonable wing play. That way Priskin would be able to get the ball in to his feet and get it out to one of the wide players or through to Hoskins.

    However, if he is deployed as a target man, we are going to see very little of what he can do, and he will pass through Watford, with many a fan glad to see the back of him. I have to admit that if this is the case, it will be a great shame.

    HA HA!!!

    He was poor, he picked up a bit after the guy in front of me shouted at him to get off the pitch or do something, I know he heard 'cos he looked at him and sort of screwed his face up! I think he would be ok in the fizzy pop league?

    If we actually play to his and Hoskins feet which is their strengh we will see the best out of them.

    Poor guys must have got a lot of neck ache yesterday.

    we have also looked most dangerous this year when we have played it on the floor. i think moses priskin and hoskins will all definately look much better when we get the ball on the deck.

    People keep referring to players in our squad who have been desperately shown up this season as being good for the CCC. I'm sorry, but if they are not good enough for the Premiership, I don't see the point in us trying to obtain promotion next season, only to be embarrassed in the Prem again. We need to start building and improving the squad now, which means getting in players who will thrive in the champ next season, but still have enought to be able to make a difference WHEN we get promoted again. Priskin will never fit the bill IMHO. He will just be marking time with us until we can ship him out to a League one side in a year or two.

    Well people will not bother to turn up should we perform that way and god forbid carry on losing as some think we will.

    All our young players must be given a chance and if we actually played football in the Premiership our chances of staying up may have improved.

    Priskin at Villa was very poor. However I think Hoskins looked bright and will be a star in the makeing.

    Must admit it looked much better with Dorris and Hoskins. I would keep Dorris for next year but my fron two would be King and Hoskins.

    I think Priskin needs to know the history of the club and play with pride. That's all we ask 100% and then they get are backing. ;D

    He looked ok to me

    Isn't strange how people see things differently, I actually thought that Tamas, did not play all that badly. I'm quite :eek: by some of your comments :confused:

    In fact I thought him and Hoskin showed a lot of movement and runs off the ball, they just did not get the service their work rate deserved.

    As they say its a funny old game ;)

    I thought Priskin played well on Saturday, I was disappointed with Hoskins although I can accept it will take him a while to adapt to the higher league.

    Priskin and Henderson would be my front two every day off the week.
