Assumably back up for Joel Ward at right back, who has been great for us so far this season. We had no cover at all at right back before this. Peter Ramage in fact, but that is a poor excuse of a cover in that position.

Think Jack Hunt will be more open to long term improvement than Joel Ward.  Presume it is the Hudderfield player we are talking about.

How have you come to that conclusion? I know nothing of Hunt, but Ward is 23 years old, and has done nothing but vastly improve in this calendar year.

I've seen Hunt about 7/8 times I think, and he has always seen to have developed significantly year on year.  I really like him as a player.  Just the kind of player Watford need at the moment. 

You will know better than me on Joel Ward - I've seen him fewer times but always had the impression he is a solid Champ level pro.  I think Hunt will end up the regular Palace right back by the second half of the year but we shall see.  Can't see Palace paying £2 million for a reserve right back to be honest.

That is why I don't quite understand the purchase. Ward has played out of his skin and above expectation and Holloway didn't expect it, but I would be shocked if Ward gets dropped for anyone, especially as he was man of the match on Saturday.

An interesting one, but we needed two players for this spot regardless for the competition.

Shocked Barry bannannnnn. My mate goes to about 32-33 villa games a season said a few weeks ago he's the worst player he's seen for them in recent times.

Just reporting what my friend said. Palarse are signing numbers, not quality.

Hunt is decent though, but like ant says ward is a decent right back. Although I can see ward being a good centre back too.

Hunt is good, not sure he's ready for the Premier league though.

Funny site popped up, www.whatbaleearns.co.uk

I was joking when I said who. I've seen him live three times.
