The reason Watson has a contract is he holds the ball up well, has a big physical presence, has an eye for goal, links play well, has a bit of vision and is tidy with the ball at his feet.
Now, he's not all those things all the time every game, but I don't think he's anywhere near as limited as it is being claimed here. We're really hoping he'll develop a bit further and become a decent/top quality A-league striker a la Matt Simon, Breen, D Mac etc.
He is out of a bit of form, but so is much of the team. I think he's a good player to have in the squad and he should be given a chance to force his way in. Could improve with his head in front of goal IMO. Smeltz keeps it simple- back where it came, across the keeper. A jink to the right and shoot.
