​Watford forward Deeney growing tired of questions of goal drought

Watford striker Troy Deeney is hoping the questions about when he scores his first goal will end soon.

"The Jason Day effect... hopefully if I get one I get three or four pretty quick," said Deeney. "The more people ask the more irrelevant it's becoming. For me the main thing is the gaffer respects what I'm doing and the players respect what I'm doing. I'm in the top five for assists as well so I'm not doing too bad.

"When it does come it might be a Leicester moment; take my shirt off and jump in the crowd to make sure everyone knows I'm happy because everyone seems to think I'm unhappy because I haven't scored."
