​Bachmann 'comfortable' at Watford despite relegation

Watford star Daniel Bachmann says he is happy at the club for the moment.

The Austrian international has not played since the sacking of Claudio Ranieri in January.

Roy Hodgson has preferred Ben Foster in goal, but Bachmann is not one to ruffle any feathers.

Foster is set to leave in the summer, which presents a new chance to fight for the no.1 shirt.

"Nothing shocks me," he told Austrian publication Krone.

"That (he would be dropped) was clear to me when Roy Hodgson became our coach. He's known Ben for years.

"There were difficult months, a lot went wrong in the whole team, but I have a contract until 2024, Watford want to keep me and I feel comfortable here."
