Ikechu Anya has praised his Watford team-mate Troy Deeney after he returned to goal-scoring form last weekend.

Deeney had not found the back of the net this season before last weekend, but Anya said that even without the goals Deeney has a huge impact on the Watford team.

Anya said: "Troy's arrogant but also humble. He's a great character to have. It was great for him to score but the performances he's been putting in without scoring have been brilliant."

"As long as Troy keeps on doing what he's doing for the last couple of years I'm sure Watford are going to be alright. This week in training you can see how much energy he's got around the place and that sort of thing is contagious.

"We've got a feel-good buzz around the camp and that's reinforced even more now."
