Kiko Femenia wants Watford to maintain the form they have shown in the Premier League.

The Hornets are flying high in seventh position in the league, ahead of Manchester United and Everton.

But Femenia knows that only a maintenance of current performance levels will ensure Watford stay in the top half.

"It is true that we are working hard on the defensive way," Femenia told Watford's website.

"Everyone is responsible to defend the goal and the goalkeeper, so we just need to keep going and work hard.

"The season is very long and we are doing well, but we need to keep down to earth, we need to keep playing [this way in] games and the target is going to be achievable."
