Watford boss Walter Mazzarri confident they're safe

Watford boss Walter Mazzarri is confident they'll stay up.

They are just seven points above the drop zone prompting former Vicarage Road favourite Tony Coton to admit he was “worried" for the Hornets this term.

Mazzarri said: “Each person has different ideas but I'm not worried. The only thing that concerns me is I want my players to have the right mentality. That is the most important thing to me.

“The players are not safe from relegation. I say that to motivate my players especially as we have played great games against Burnley and Arsenal.

“After two consecutive wins we have played completely different as the players are comfortable. The team have to be a bit afraid. The motivation should come by itself."
