Watford boss Mackay delighted with Man Utd pair Cleverley, Cathcart

Watford boss Malky Mackay is delighted with the impact made by Manchester United loan duo Tom Cleverley and Craig Cathcart.

I liked that - they'd got themselves out of playing against other Premiership reserve youngsters to go to the Championship to play against men."
