This whole Watford in the Premier League, I've still not quite got my head around it. It all seems a bit surreal.

Just twelve months ago we were opening our season with a home tie against Bolton Wanderers. This time round, we had a painstaking long jounrey up the M6 to the famous Goodison Park followed by West Bromwich Albion visiting a newly refurbished Vicarage Road.

And after two games, Watford already look at home in the top flight.

Early signs have offered encouragement. The Hornets have looked every inch a Premier League side and have not been outclassed in either of their encounters to date. Instead, they have taken the challenge to their opposition and haven’t rested on their laurels.

Ahead of the trip to Everton, I think every supporter would have taken a point, right? So, it was testament to Watford’s performance that some supporters walked away from Goodison Park with a tinge of disappointment. Who would have thought that 12 months ago?

The Golden Boys' point at Goodison now looks even better in my eyes. Yes, we may have let Arouna Kone equalise three minutes after we regained the lead, but Everton played Southampton off the park on Saturday and recorded a comfortable 3-0 victory. Was this the case with the Hornets? No. Not even close.

A second point of the season was earned at the weekend. Whilst a 0-0 draw may not sound entertaining, it doesn’t tell the true story. Quique Sanchez Flores’ men dominated the affair, playing some lovely football in the process.

The Hornets were excellent but they struggled to create that golden chance due to West Brom’s resolute and organised defending. A typical characteristic in any Tony Pulis side.

New signings Sebastian Prödl, Etienne Capoue, Allan Nyom and Valon Behrami were all impressive and Jose Manuel Jurado also had a good game.

It was Austrian defender Prödl that really stood out for me though. He completely bossed the defence alongside Craig Cathcart, meaning Rickie Lambert and West Brom’s star striker Saido Berahino barely had a sniff all game.

The former Werder Bremen man also showed that he was equally comfortable with the ball at his feet and he made one crucial tackle in the first half, which prevented West Brom from breaking through on goal.

From where I’m sitting, Hornets supporters should be encouraged from what they’ve seen in the opening two games. But this isn’t to say that Watford don’t have things to be working on.

On a number of occasions on Saturday, the Golden Boys got into excellent positions only for the final ball or cross to be lacking in quality.

Jurado was the main culprit, although that was the only black mark on his performance. As the quality of the final ball or cross was poor, promising attacks went down the pan. It was frustrating.

On the whole, however, it’s been a good start to the season. Unbeaten. Two points on the board. And ahead of the likes of Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur in the table. Apart from a victory, what more could we want?
