Watford chasing 50 points as Anya revels in preserved Premier League status

Watford's Ikechi Anya claims that the Hornets are determined to finish the season strongly and want to put 50 points on board by the end of the campaign.

The Hornets are currently placed 13th in the league table with 44 points and have two games left to play in the season.

They will travel to relegation-threatened Norwich City on Wednesday before ending the campaign at home against Sunderland on the weekend and Anya wants two wins to celebrate their survived return to top flight football.

"As long as you're making chances, I think that's a good sign," said Anya on Hornets Player HD, following the 2-0 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday.

"It was just one of those days, but on another day you get the goals and hopefully that can happen on Wednesday.

"We can still get 50 points. Historically for promoted teams it's just about staying up and we've maintained our status, so we're now trying to finish as good as we can."
