Liverpool loses to Watford, Swansea and West Ham draw

Watford, Crystal Palace and top-of-the-table Leicester City are all challenging the more established top four this season, while Bournemouth and Norwich City have beaten Chelsea and Manchester United, and Flores said: “I think it’s wonderful that teams like this are able to do what they have done”.

Odion Ighalo doubled their advantage soon after as he sped onto an over-the-top pass, saw off Martin Skrtel and found the net with a low finish from a tight angle.

I’m not saying that managers don’t own the responsibility for this, of course they do, but players must have their own standards which should never drop, regardless of the circumstances.

“We have to stick to the ideas of the club, which are very clever, very clear”.

However, replays showed that Bogdan may have had both hands on the ball at the time of Ake’s strike. “And then third goal – game over”.

“We want to keep going”.

And although he insists Watford’s main objective is still the magic 40-point mark to avoid relegation, Ighalo says they do not fear the prefects in their class. “I’m not blaming anybody but myself to drop the first ball”, said Bogdan.

“I admire these players because we create a plan, then they supersede the expectation I create before the match”.

The visitor’s lethargic display would continue into the second half, with the Hornets once again the far better side.

“We lost our mind after the first goal, we lost our compact formation after the first goal”.

Despite not specifying, Bodan also said there were “some other things during the game” that need to be looked at – aside from the “very big mistakes” – adding that they need to “look at it and correct it as quickly as possible”.

“It was a mistake and I will learn from it. I felt good, it wasn’t nerves”. “I feel completely happy with the performance and the players. I know many defenders will take note of that and start making me”, the Eagles striker said with a smile.

It is the hard work of Deeney without the ball, dropping back into midfield, which ensures that Watford can play 4-4-2 without getting outnumbered.

The former Julius Berger forward, Ighalo has tuned up his goal scoring form as he scored in his fourth consecutive English Premier League (EPL) match in a row.
