Mazzarri plumps for Pereyra over Pogba
Paul Pogba arrived in the Premier League with top billing but Watford boss Walter Mazzarri thinks he got a better deal with Roberto Pereyra.
Watford boss Walter Mazzarri says he would rather have Roberto Pereyra in his midfield than Manchester United star Paul Pogba.
Pereyra will be reunited with world-record signing and ex-Juventus team-mate Paul Pogba after his comparatively low-key move to Watford, when United travel to Vicarage Road on Sunday.
Pogba's displays in United's 2-1 derby defeat to Manchester City last weekend and Thursday's 1-0 Europa League reverse at Feyenoord have come in for criticism, while Pereyra has adapted seamlessly to life at Watford.
