Watford’s 4-1 defeat at Leicester City will not live long in the memory of many Hornets fans but it was a significant day in the career of three of the club’s players.

James Morris, Kamil Conteh and Shaqai Forde all made their first appearances for Watford and in doing so took the number of players to make their debuts in the Pozzo era to 150 in league and cup matches.

The number of debutants this season now stands at 14 and that figure is expected to rise shortly following the signings of Hassane Kamara, Samir and Edo Kayembe. However, that will still be some way short of the 22 players who made their first Hornets appearance in the 2013/14 campaign.
