Watford fans claim Everton signed the wrong player, Pereyra better than Richarlison

Watford star Roberto Pererya shone this weekend with Richarlison also starring for Everton.

Watford may have lost their prize asset to Everton this summer but Roberto Pereyra ensured he was not missed.

Pereyra scored twice in Watford's opening weekend victory against Brighton and Hove Albion, with his first goal particularly impressive.

Richarlison went on to also net twice in Everton's 2-2 draw at Wolves, his first goals since last November.

Watford ace Pereyra is in his second season at Vicarage Road after signing from Juventus last summer.

The 27-year-old Argentine showed the form which has seen him win 10 international caps for his country.

Last season he scored five league goals, the same number as Richarlison, in six fewer games.

Watford fans are certainly giddy after their opening day win, and took to Twitter to proclaim Pereyra as the better player, even taunting Everton that they signed the wrong man.

There won't be too many Toffees supporters unhappy with Richarlison after his contribution against Wolves, and if Pereyra continues to step up for Watford, this could be a transfer which ends up benefiting everybody.
