Watford manager Javi Gracia believes Troy Deeney is England's best striker.

The 30-year-old has scored 11 goals for Watford this season, leading the club into the top half of the Premier League and an FA Cup final against Manchester City.

"There are good English players in that position, but in my opinion Troy is the best one," Gracia said.

"He's in a very good moment now, but it's not my decision and I always try to be respectful with the national team."
