    "Not many of us knew what to expect from Watford. They have brought in a lot of new players but defensively they have been very solid. 

    "You really have to give credit to manager Quique Flores. They've got a strong foundation, and that mixture of Troy Deeney and Odion Ighalo up front means they are always likely to score goals."

    Watfordand managerQuique Floresare enjoying a blissful start to their relationship - but can it last? BBC Sport punditPat Nevinthinks it might.

    "But oddly enough when you hear him talking, it sounds like both parties seem to have settled down a little bit. That might be a good thing for Watford."

    Symbiotic partnerships that work together for the greater good.

    Watford's frontline team of Troy Deeney and Odion Ighalo are both competent attackers but are far more explosive as a partnership... and boy, have the Hornets benefited.

    The dynamic duo have combined to create 23 goal-scoring chances for themselves in the Premier League this campaign - more than any other pair.

    Nigeria striker Ighalo has scored eight goals, and Deeney has four in his last five league matches.
