## Watford: Last Season
Watford were one of the favourites to be relegated having never lasted more than one season in the top flight. However, The Hornets defied the odds and ended the season in 13th place and reached the FA Cup semi-finals.
Quique Sanchez Flores has signed no more than sixteen players in the summer of 2015, but it was the already fruitful striking partnership between Troy Deeney and Odion Ighalo which bared fruit for their success.
By Christmas, Watford were sitting in seventh place, one point outside the infamous ‘top four.’ Watford had recorded impressive victories against Stoke City, Swansea, Newcastle and West Ham before perhaps their biggest result of the season, a 3-0 triumph against Liverpool at Vicarage Road.
However, 2016 saw a turn in their fortunes as domestic form dipped culminating in only four wins in the Premier League to finish comfortably in mid table. Watford appeared to take their eye off their domestic form and focused on the FA Cup, which included a famous victory against Arsenal in the Quarter Final at The Emirates. This was not enough to save Quique Sanchez Flores his job and the Spaniard was sacked at the end of the season and replaced by former Inter Milan boss, Walter Mazzarri.
