The Fight Isn’t Over - Says Watford Walter Mazzarri

Watford boss Walter Mazzarri is taking a careful approach to the end of the season, saying that his Hornets side will not be safe from relegation until the maths says so. Mazzarri watched on at Vicarage Road as Etienne Capoue's goal three minutes before half-time secured three points and saw his side hit the sacred 40 Premier League points total.

The Hornets remain 10th after the narrow victory, with five games left to play and though they are now 12 points clear of Swansea the Italian is not allowing himself, or his players, to get ahead of themselves.

He said “No we are not safe because until the numbers and the maths say so, we are not safe. From the beginning I've always said that I want to get as far as possible, so I don't want my teams to relax; I want my team to get into the mentality that we can get as far as possible this season.”
