New watfordfc midfielder Kone relishing the challenges of English football
“This was for me to get minutes, to get my match fitness in and to get ready to go back with the team and play. Slaven Bilić didn’t ask much of me, he just asked us to execute the game plan that we all had and to be the best player I can be.
Kone was well aware that despite his relatively tender age, his debut saw him surrounded by many players getting their first taste of senior football. “I was in their position not so long ago, and coming into the team it would be greedy not to help them. They have talent and we had a lot of young players playing in that game, but it was good for them to get those minutes and see what it was like.
