Tommy Watson has spoken about how it felt to score a brace at the Stadium of Light and how he wants to keep developing as a member of the first team squad.
FOOTBALL FAMILY
"My dad was more of a Sunday League player to be honest! He was a hard tackling centre-half so I don't know where my genetics came from!"
SCORING THE WINNER
"That winning goal is what you picture in your mind, that late winner. I wish it was at the other end but a knee slide in wet conditions, it's just perfect."
WAITING FOR THE CHANCE
"It's been quite frustrating as a young kid because you feel ready even though you're probably not. But I'm really happy with how it's all happened and I'm blessed with the group of lads in the dressing room in my breakthrough season."
DIRECT PLAY STYLE
"That's what I'm all about and I think I'm now ready to start contributing with more goals and assists. I want to be the main man here, scoring and assisting as much as I can."
CLARKE COMPARISONS
"I liked the stuff he was doing and the way he attacked his man and contributed to the team with goals and assists but I think we're different players. I'm probably more explosive I think but as long as I can make an impact like he did I'll be happy. But I do want to try and take my name away from that and make my own name."
