Espen Baadsen
The Hornets are buzzing aftert smashing their transfer record by completing the double signing of Scandinavians Allan Nielsen and Espen Baardsen from Tottenham. Danish international Nielsen completed his £2.25million move and shattered the Hornets' previous record of £1.5million for Heidar Helguson in January. Baardsen's £1.25million fee makes him the club's first seven-figure goalkeeper.

Watford boss Graham Taylor said: "I hope it shows the dressing room that after finding the Premiership a bit too hot to handle, our intention is to get back as soon as possible and have another crack at it." And that is exactly what they are capable of doing, hence the encouraging odds on a top six finish.

Allan Nielsen

A season in the Premiership will have given Taylor's side a great deal of experience and they are unlikely to find the First Division forward lines as punishing as those in the top flight. With the addition of Nielsen and Baardsen, the Hornets are a better side than when they won promotion two years ago and the play-offs look like a very sound bet indeed.
