Jonathan Hogg is delighted with the faith shown in him by Watford boss Gianfranco Zola.
Hogg is one of only a handful of players to survive from last season under the Italian's revolution at Vicarage Road, coming after his summer appointment following June's takeover by the Pozzo family.
Not only that, but Hogg can in fact claim to be the Hornets' most used outfield player this term, racking up an unrivalled 19 starts in all competitions.
And the battling lynchpin is happy to have been noted for his worth by Zola.
"I'm glad he has put his faith in me," Hogg told Press Association Sport.
"I'm one of those players who does a job for the team. Most fans won't pick up on what I do, but I go out there and run my socks off and do a job for the team.
"Hopefully the more success the team gets then the more noticeable recognition all of us get because we all deserve some credit for the performances we've been putting in.
"We've got a lot of different players in the team this year, a lot of different qualities compared to what we had last year. The gaffer's put a lot of faith in me, playing me every time I've been fit. I'm really happy with that."
And Hogg has revealed Zola could still do a job for Watford in attack, despite the former Chelsea and Italy international being 46 years of age.
"He joins in training now and again and I don't think he's lost any of it, to be fair, he's fantastic sometimes in training. He puts some of us to shame with some of things he does," Hogg added.
"It's an absolute joy to work with him."
Saunders bagged his first of the season at Plainmoor to level matters against Torquay but it was not enough for his side to come away with any reward as Abu Ogogo's own goal handed the hosts a 2-1 victory.
Saunders admits his goal provided little joy in the overall light of defeat and now wants to add to his tally while, at the same time, helping the Daggers come away with something to show for their efforts.
"I feel in previous games I've come close to scoring with a few strikes and it was a relief to be honest to get on the scoresheet," he told Daggers Player. "Hopefully now I've got one I'll start to get a few more.
"When you score and don't get anything out of the game it kind of gets forgotten but if it's a goal that gets you a point or a goal which wins a game or helps win a game, you get more recognition for it."
Cummins has established himself as a key member of Stuart McCall's side this season, making 16 appearances for the Steelmen.
The 19-year-old joined Motherwell last January after leaving Everton and he has helped fill the void left by the departures of Tim Clancy and Stephen Craigan in the summer.
Cummins' performances have not gone unnoticed with a number of clubs in England keeping tabs on his progress in Lanarkshire.
Motherwell have moved to reward Cummins for his fine form with a new deal to keep him at the club until 2015, according to Sky Sports.
Cummins was delighted to pledge his future to Motherwell.
"I am delighted to have agreed a new deal with Motherwell as I have really enjoyed my time here since coming up from England," Cummins told skysports.com.
"Things have gone great for me and I am just focused on doing my best for the club for the rest of the season."
