Yep

Perhaps we should let Olise kick a ball before rating him lower than Hughes!

I believe they play very different roles so it's not (IMO) a question of 'either/or' but rather 'both' in their respective roles

Spot on. Hughes and O’Brien would provide the energy to suit a high press and the bite we’ve been missing. Like you I think both might be beyond us this window.

Yep that's how I see it. Both provide that bit of guile and energy but most importantly have the quality to maintain possession and pick a pass.

With Eze out of the team, it currently seems only the two CBs are naturally comfortable in possession. Macca and Gallagher are ok and even Zaha struggles in tight spaces and often loses the ball when not receiving it in space. If we are to continue with a more possession based game then it's imperative we get players in who actually want the ball.

According to transfer market Hughes plays anywhere across midfield and Olise plays middle of midfield and right midfield plus a bit further forward. Still we will see what P.V. decides in due course,probably something completely different.

Time will tell but relegation favourites Watford didn’t think he was that good or they would have offered him a decent contract to stay.

I believe they offered him a very good contract but appears to be an issue with some other players. Perhaps he now wants to play football rather than thugball

Did I do that? I was agreeing that Hughes is underestimated on here, Olise was not mentioned

I believe Hughes has been playing DM for Watford, whereas Olise is an AM/ wide right player

I just wish the club would get this done, and a couple more as well.
Hughes, is good enough for what we need, and young enough to give us a few years service yet. It’s just as well he is decent as it’s doubtful we have the money for higher grade. But beyond that our squad needs two or three more, and the clocks ticking down.

I'm still hopeful that we will bring in 3 more players - 2 perm and 1 loan.

10m is too much he only has 1 year left on contract that would be poor business and show we are desperate.

Might as well say no and hold of until jan offer around 5m if they say no see if we can sign him for next seasons on a free.

He is not a player that is that good you cant afford to miss out on him so must rush to get him.

We need other players especially people that can put balls in the box.

Given that Watford are tipped to struggle this season alongside ourselves, why on earth would they want to release any player to us prior to deadline day?
If he's coming, this won't happen till the very last minute.

I'd like to see Hughes – and others – added, and soon. But we need to recognize that, with our modest resources and/or stingy owners it will always be a challenge to land our first, second, or even third favorite choices. PV is beginning to see the reality of this, but so far we've actually done well to have improved both midfield and the defense.
