Watson was a visionary whose training methods advice to players on diet and somewhat controversial recruitment strategy would no doubt raise eyebrows in the modern era. However he would provide the blueprint for success that saw him become Liverpool's longest - serving manager. Watson's men were the superstars of their day and included heroic captain Alex Raisbeck and lethal marksman Sam Raybould not to mention the incomparable Matt Mc Queen a future title - winning manager in his own right.
