With due respect, Hughes is patently better than any of those players. Andy King, when he emerged, is about the closest comparison. I expect Hughes to have a better career than King though.
For a short period Mattock was highly rated, playing England age group football and linked with big premier league clubs, certainly more hyped than King has ever been. If Hughes doesn't have a better career than King I'd be surprised but that is because I think King has done very little except score goals in league 1.
