Walter Mazzarri: Dishes out the instructions

Walter Mazzarri believes Watford are heading in the right direction but wants more consistency over the course of the 90 minutes.

Watford currently occupy ninth position in the Premier League table following the 0-0 draw against Swansea and the Italian boss was glad that his side’s inability to score did not lead to a defeat.

“I am happy with the point and the first-half performance, considering it was an away game,” said Mazzarri.

“The only thing is we should have scored.

“In the second half we made some mistakes and allowed Swansea to be dangerous.

“When we play away and don’t manage to score, the home teams grows in confidence. That’s what happened.

“We have proved that we are a good team and Burnley (when Watford lost 2-0) was one episode.

“We are growing in personality as a team, but we have to play for the whole game, not just one half.”
