The performances of the Watford striker has drawn admiration from a former club forward and legend. Troy Deeney, who brought his 11-year stay at the Hornets to an end in August, has nothing but praises for Dennis. He has even gone as far as tipping him to become the new fan favourite at the club. Deeney believes that the Nigerian striker has all it takes to succeed at the highest levels. He said if Dennis stays for long at Vicarage, he has the quality to become a legend of the club. Ismaila Sarr arrived at Vicarage Road for £40 million from Rennes. In a twist, Dennis has stolen the thunder from the Senegalese. The Nigerian attacker, who arrived from Club Brugge in the summer for €4 million, will be worth more now. When Emmanuel Dennis arrived in the Premier League, not many took notice, and not much was expected of him. The 24-year-old striker was supposed to fill in the space. He was supposed to be the sidekick for the £40 million Senegalese star Ismaila Sarr, but someone forgot to read him the script. The Nigerian forward is making a name for himself with star performances at the club. Emmanuel Dennis has notched up a tidy return of six goals and five assists this season, with his latest effort, a goal in the 2-1 defeat to Chelsea on Wednesday. The last player to score in three consecutive Premier League matches for Watford was Troy Deeney almost five years ago. Emmanuel Dennis has equalled the feat with strikes against Manchester United, Leicester City and Chelsea. Troy Deeney believes that Dennis can do great things at the club with his qualities. Watford takes on Manchester City next, and Emmanuel Dennis could take his goal-scoring act to four consecutive Premier League goals.
