Flores not worried by scoring drought for Watford striker Deeney

Watford manager Quique Sanchez Flores is not worried about the goal-scoring drought of his main striker Troy Deeney.


The 27-year-old, who scored 21 Championship goals last season, is yet to find the net for the Hornets this term.

Flores said: "I am very happy with his attitude, which is exceptional as always, and I don't want to take issue about scoring goals because he is a very important reference point for us.

"I am not worried that he is not scoring now because he will score.

"He is a clever player and, like (Odion) Ighalo, he scored 20 goals last season.

"But he understands this is a different level and the responsibilities are different."
