Watford’s Gracia aims to restore confidence

LONDON, Jan 22: Restoring confidence will be the key to getting Watford back to the fine form they enjoyed at the start of the Premier League season, new manager Javi Gracia said.

The 47-year-old Spaniard was appointed on an 18-month contract on Sunday hours after the sacking of Marco Silva.

The Hornets were fourth in the Premier League after eight matches but Gracia takes over with them 10th in the table, four points above the relegation zone, following a run of 11 defeats in 16 league matches since.

“The most important thing in this moment is the players recover confidence because they have played very good matches this season and I think they can do it again.
Confidence, work hard and the results will arrive,” Gracia told the club’s website.
