Watford boss Marco Silva has urged his players to remain grounded after a fantastic start to the season in which they have lost only one of their opening eight league games.

"It's too early, I want everyone at the club to keep their feet on the floor and to work hard every day to prepare the next match because in football everything changes too fast," Silva told said.

"I want everyone to be calm. I think it is fair we are having these conversations because we did really well in our opening eight games.

"You need to keep going, to work hard and to think of each game like it's our most important."

"I feel pride when I see the way they worked in the last match. I saw the ambitions we had in that moment, when we scored the 1-1 against a big team like Arsenal.

"We didn't go back, we continued with our work and tried to achieve a better result for us."
