​Watford midfielder Hughes hoping for prolific season

Watford midfielder Will Hughes is hoping that he can score more goals with the first team this season.

Hughes got his first goal of the campaign against Burnley at the weekend. He hit a great strike from 20 yards out, which beat Burnley keeper Joe Hart.

And he wants it to be the first of many this season.

Speaking to Watford's website, Hughes said: "Scoring goals is something I've talked about for a long time over the last few years.

"Thankfully I've got off the mark early on and hopefully I'll be able to carry that on throughout the season. But it's a lot harder than it looks."
