What the managers are saying:

Javi Gracia (Watford):“As a coach you always depend on the results, but at this moment I can say I am proud to be part of this project, not only for one year, but for a long time.“It is good for me, I feel happy here, my technical staff as well. We try with our job to help improve the team.“This stability is good for the players. Now we need to keep working hard because it is the only way we can keep this good moment going.”Jurgen Klopp (Liverpool): “Watford are really good. Good football, lively, well organised in a 4-4-2 mostly.“Deeney will be back I think. Mitrovic did really well for Fulham with a similar job two weeks ago. Quick wingers, very good centre midfielders.“This is for sure the best Watford team since I am in. And with a really good coach.”Javi Gracia lost 5-0 in his first encounter with Klopp’s Liverpool3

If you havent already got him in your squad then more fool you but we definitely recommend snapping him up now. The Foxes now have an excellent run of games against teams in the bottom half of the Premier League table. If he doesnt get clean sheets and add to his two goals and six assists we will be shocked.

Don't get the fantasy about Martial.He has talent but he occupies LW for which we already have Hazard and Hudson-Odoi.His main strengths are dribbling and cutting in 1v1 which would be nullified at RW.Not to mention that it's plain stupid to spend even 1 penny on him as he has 1 year left on his contract if he doesnt trigger the extension.Would rather go for Zaha.
