Up: Etienne Capoue

After a difficult opening three games under new manager Walter Mazzari, Watford appear to be looking like the team that thrilled the Premier League throughout the back end of 2015, and much of that success is down to French midfielder Etienne Capoue.

Not known as a goal-scorer, and much maligned throughout his time at Tottenham, Capoue’s excellent opener in Watford’s 3-1 win over Manchester United was his fourth goal in five games this season.

Capoue won’t be able to keep up this incredible goal-scoring ratio all season, but if he continues to perform with this much confidence and freedom, he could just have a very, very good campaign – one that all Spurs supporters were dying to see from him during his time at White Hart Lane.
