Watford captain Troy Deeney has already laid his plans for the club's return to the Premier League.

The Hornets celebrated their promotion on Monday in the streets of the city and are immediately looking forward to life back in the top flight.

Star striker Deeney, who signed a new contract earlier in the season, is well aware it will be tough to compete with the big boys so has set the bar low to begin with as Watford prepare for life in the Premier League for the first time in just under a decade.

"It's been a great season," said Deeney.

"We are going to have to go again, but not with expectations of challenging. We need to be sensible.

"As long as we stay up, it will have been a fantastic season."

The Hornets finished second on the Championship table, just a point behind champions AFC Bournemouth, after a late goal from Sheffield Wednesday's Atdhe Nuhiu on Saturday denied them the title.
