    He's got to be careful with all those bracelets, they may restrict his blood-flow which (if he's not careful) will keep him out of the game for a further 3 months

    His birthday today. Only 27? Same age as Hazard who I thought was 23/24. Make or break time for Pereyra's legacy!

    Our Hispanic trio look pretty happy on the coach! Lets hope the journey back is just as cheery:).

    Do you think Deulofeu deliberately missed a d out of his twitter name?

    A decent performance against the gooners, flashes of his quality against the scousers, followed by another encouraging display on Saturday - is he finally getting back to his best? Hopefully he can go on to finish the season strongly as the player we all hoped he'd be.

    Perhaps it's no coincidence that his last three decent games have come against teams that actually play football instead of anti football * la Allardyce/Pardew et al.

    With the quality he has plus the encouraging signs coming from Hughes, the brilliance of Doucoure and Chalobah on his way back - we really do have a top class midfield. If only the defence were similar:rolleyes:.

    He seemed comfortable playing at Anfield.

    His spin on the byline was superb.

    He's up there with chubby Barnes as the best player in the history of Watford FC.

    Our flair players seem to come into their own vs LFC.

    Starting to play well again so I assume an injury is to occur in the very near future?

    The vaguest of vague suggestions Pereyra may be on the move in the Da*ly Ma*l today by Harry Slavin.

    In the match report Slavin, on the back of questioning Gracia being at WFC next season, says Roberto '..appears to be playing himself into a move this summer.'

    As I say it's overwhelmingly vague but they have had some knowledge in the past with regards to transfers.

    Deeney is also quoted as saying 'They're [Pozzo/Duxbury etc.] never happy settling for what they've got.' about the future of Gracia.

    Not surprised if teams come in for him, he's the 2nd best player ever to play for our club

    I was thinking that clubs will be sniffing around.
    If we have to lose one of Doucoure or RP I'd rather it was AD.

    It is a bit like the Doucoure situation, very good player, but we do have other players in that area. Wouldn't want to get rid even if we got sillybollocks money though tbf, Hughes is class but injury prone, plus he can play out wide

    On his day he can be absolutely unplayable. Unfortunately his injuries have meant that we have not seen the best of him. Seems to be really improving at the moment, could be huge for us next season. However for silly money we would have to sell, particularly with his known injury issues.

    One of my favourites but he doesn’t have the impact on a game that Zaha does.

    This is true, but he's got a long way to catch up on Lloyd Dyer if he's ever going to be number 1

    Probably cos Pereyra is best used as a playmaker and not a winger.

    Always found it very frustrating how little he's been used as a central attacking midfielder.

    He played there a few times either side of New Year and the games just passed him by and he kept getting subbed early in the second half. I can't remember if he was fully fit or not, and the whole team were rancid by that point anyway but I think he might be better out wide where it's less important if he flits in and out of the game.

    If I had to choose between him or Hughes for the central role, I'd go for Hughes as whenever he's played there, he demands the ball and tries to make the game tick. I've never seen that from Pereyra, whose best performances have all come out wide. Still, great player to watch and good to see him return to form under Gracia.
