A player that has split opinions through the support. I've made no secret that I'm a big fan and feel he should stay at Portman Road.
The biggest issue he had was that he was clearly a panic buy. He offers nothing that Roy Keane looked for in a player: Hard work, Determination, Consistency. and it soon became clear Keane didn't have space for a 'Luxury' player in the team.
I think it says a lot that in two seasons his loan clubs were QPR and Swansea. Two of the best 'footballing' teams in our division, Which leads me to the crux of the issue, with us playing a more direct style of play (Long ball) regularly, Tamas was unable to impact a match. He isn't the quickest and he certainly doesn't cope well with passes over his head or into his chest as last season proves But with the ball on the floor he has some great touches (which none of our other strikers have had) and has shown he has an eye for a pass.
I think given some games he could still be very useful for us. I can't think of many better 3rd or 4th choice strikers in this division, he has scored some good goals in his career (Not a massive amount and certainly not many for us) but I think he has a lot of potential. And I think most importantly the lad is still only 24.
If it were a choice between Scotland and Priskin I'd be disappointed to see us lose Priskin because I feel he would go elsewhere and do a decent job.

Priskin is rapid on the ball and deserves a run of games to prove himself in our league. Give him service and he will score. I would certainly keep him...
 
Tamas Priskin & Nathan Ellington.

Whatever problems we may have at the moment, those 2 names should remind all Watford fans that some of our problems at least are behind us.

Underated.. I think he is quality.. just lacks the service.
