He is tidy and worked well with Dobbo. I don't think he is part of our best midfield but seeing as Fraser and Camera are injured, he stabilises things.
Show's how far we've dropped down the pecking order. Seems like yesterday I was watching Luton play Welling in the conference, now we're taking their bit part players.
Promising but don’t want to get too excited yet, it was only last season Kilkenny was called the new Cullen after his first game.
Going to be interesting to see what combination we go with in central midfield when Fraser, Camara and Taylor are back. With both Campbells playing in the 10 role we have a lot of options there. Could get to a point it’s hard for Anderson to make the bench.

Just what I was thinking. We've tried for so long to get the tidy passer in midfield and we've had a lot of false dawns. Kilkenny, Levitt, Matt Smith 2.0, Albie, no-one has ever stuck despite some of them showing flashes. Hopefully Watson is our guy as Dobson really needs a bit of calm and sensible play alongside him

He is the latest in a long line of Luton's cast offs. Shinnie and Lee spring to mind.

True but I do feel that’s a real disservice to what Luton have achieved. Very much a similar storyline to when we first made it up in 98.

I have spoken to at least three Luton fans about him and ’cast off’ is definitely not the phrase to use. They wish they had seen him play more and he is still only young.

They were a top flight side for 10 years in the 1980s, winning the EFL Cup during that time (beating Arsenal in the final)

I know what you mean. Taking cast-offs from a Premier league club. Who'd have thought it. 😉

Cast off was probably the wrong word, "a long line of players we have signed that aren't good enough for Luton's first team" would probably have been better.
I do actually think this one not only has the potential to be a multi year loan but also a perm, if Luton use the Premier league money wisley.
The truth of the matter is that many clubs admired and envied us when we were in the Premier League. We are no longer in the Premier League and not even in the Championship so some of the clubs that envied us, we now envy them!

Literally said this to a mate, we were also lined up to be one of there shit team pre season friendlies until there pitch delay issues.

In the Championship next season, Watson might be given a chance by Luton

I don't know, he will be 23 when next season starts, I think he will have to have a hell of a season to work his way into their plans for next season. If they don't go straight back up it might be a different story.

Who us or Luton in the championship next season? 🤣
I likened him during the game to Ben Reeves - a bit meh, don't think he gets near our starting XI if everyone is fit
Glad I’m not the only one.
Same can't say I was actually too impressed either.
I admire so many other posters for being so into the game to notice things I didn't notice or how he tired later on but for me I only really remember him standing out giving the ball away needlessly at least twice and giving fouls away. But then again I only really notice things that stand out on the pitch these days such is the mediocrity usually on offer.
Now the other Watson impressed in the second half when he came on and glad he's the permanent one and not the loanee.
Have to admit to not being overwhelmed when he signed. But he's looking very very tidy so far, probably the most "complete" midfielder we have currently and can't fault his effort either.
Don't want to get carried away too quickly but he's made a really good start if nothing else.

Admittedly he did tire in the second half but that will improve. Got a bit of Josh Cullen vibe about him - definitely one to keep an eye on

Hasn't got the fitness to last 90 yet, but a decent signing.
