Watford midfielder Juraj Kucka happy with Prem demands

Watford midfielder Juraj Kucka is loving the physical challenge of playing in England.

The Slovakia international, 34, joined Watford from Parma this past summer.

"From what I could see on television, I could tell it's a very physical league," he told the club's website.

"That's what I am. I always play following this style and try to give my 100 per cent. Every game is different and different things happen.

"Time is going so quickly. In a week I made my Premier League debut, and it was a very good game. It was very intense but I'm very happy with the outcome because we won.

"What I want now is that I hope we can keep playing like we did against Aston Villa and keep making our fans happy. Why can't we play even better than we did against Villa?"
