Solid for the most part on the right hand side of defence and good with distribution and helping to contain Watford attacks. Put in pass for Williams for sublime second goal

Captain showed strength in the middle of the back three to ensure first half chances were kept to a minimum. Very good after the break too in great overall performance.

Put Wanderers ahead with great low finish into the bottom corner after Watford stopper Daniel Bachmann's heavy pass. Played in the number 10 role.
