David Watson

Watson operates further forward than a typical central midfielder, pushing beyond the front line when the moment allows rather than staying tucked in behind the play. He already has a goal on the European stage for his previous club, scoring against continental opposition in a competitive fixture. Plenty of more experienced players never get that chance. That willingness to arrive late into the box is what should set him apart in a deeper midfield role.

The move south into English football is a jump in intensity from Scottish domestic football, and attacking midfielders in particular can find space much harder to come by. His early days will likely be about adjusting to less time on the ball, rather than repeating the moment that made his name back home. Watch whether he still gets into the same advanced positions once opponents set up specifically to stop him.
