Watford boss Javi Gracia is fighting for his job after defeat to West Ham.

The Mail on Sunday suggest Watford owners, the Pozzi family, are considering whether the 49-year-old is the right man to stay in charge.

Gracia is less than a year into four-and-half-year deal at Vicarage Road signed last November.

And having led the club to the FA Cup final on top of a mid-table finish in the Premier League last season, the doubts may be hard to understand.

But there is concern that the early form the side showed under his leadership has started to fall away, going back as far as last season.
