Deeney: Watford lucky to have Pereyra

Watford striker Troy Deeney rates Roberto Pereyra as the best player he's worked with.

Deeney feels fans underestimate the midfielder.

He told the Daily Mail: "Pereyra is the best I've played with, people don't realise how good this kid is, he's played in Champions League finals and people act like we've just found him off the street. He's frightening, he can do anything.

"He's got that extra quality and for a team like us you need little sprinkles of magic."
