Watford's winning streak has come to an end – with an all-too-obvious lack of firepower needing to be addressed in the January transfer window. Prior to the Hornets' 2-0 defeat by fellow play-off hopefuls Millwall, Watford had won four league matches on the bounce. It is wonderful to see an academy product score for the club but we should not have to rely on a 21-year-old to find the net. Luca Kjerrumgaard is Watford's top goalscorer this season with seven league goals, making him the joint 20th highest scorer in the Championship. While seven goals in 24 matches is not the worst return, the statistics are slightly dampened when you acknowledge the Danish striker has only scored in four games, having netted a double on three separate occasions.
