Aston Villa boss Remi Garde refuses to admit they're down after their home defeat to Watford.

Villa lost 3-2 a home to Watford on Saturday.

Garde said, "As I said before this game, I still believe the way we play football and the way we played today, I can't say we are dead.

"We deserved a point in this game but for that we must be better and we must defend our goal better than we did."

On the improvements, he added: "Not in terms of points but the way we played yes.

"It's quite difficult for them because we obviously have a lack of confidence both offensively and defensively."
