Watford hero Luther Blissett has urged the players not to let today's FA Cup final chance slip.

The Hornets' all time top goalscorer wants them to go one better than they did 35 years ago.

"You're proud of it, but we've been to the cup final once as a club," he told the Watford Observer ahead of the final against Manchester City.

"What you want is to come back one better - this time we'd like to come back and bring the trophy.

"That's how I see it and I'm sure the players are exactly the same and I think the supporters need to think the same way.

"Sometimes we all get carried away about how great it is to get to the cup final, but it's even greater to win the cup.

"The players and all the supporters need to be on board with that. We're going there to win the cup and not just to enjoy the day out.

"That's got to be the way, regardless of who you're playing, you've got to go there with the sole intention of winning and the players will be, the supporters need to be sat with the same way of thinking because that positive energy can make the difference between them getting that result and not."
