Watford have sacked their manager Xisco Munoz after 10 months in the job.
The 41-year-old Spaniard helped win promotion to the Premier League last season after joining in December 2020.
Watford are 14th with seven points from seven games and Munoz's last match in charge was Saturday's 1-0 defeat by Leeds United.
"The board feels recent performances strongly indicate a negative trend at a time when team cohesion should be visibly improving," the club said.

Watford owner is a muppet. 7 points from 7 games is a very good performance from a team who were just promoted. Kinda hope they go down again.

They certainly don’t hang about at Watford. They are nothing if not decisive. No procrastination at all.

And there is me thinking Watford was doing OK compared to Norwich, Newcastle and Burnley

Isn’t too bad of a start after promotion

Madness !! he was doing quite well , some very interesting signings too . Idiots in charge , maybe they deserve relegation on the back of that ridiculous decision.

I noticed the odds on him being sacked shortened considerably during friday afternoon/evening, so obviously someone was in the know.

"Watford sack manager", hardly headline news as we've heard it so often!

Good. Now finally the club might put a stop to the succession of rank average foreign managers and give a home grown manager a chance . Just as Watford always used to in their heyday

And that is the manager merry-go-round at Watford. No time, no chance. Good luck Xisco.

Well IMHO it won't help an average side stay up. They would need a bit of cash which they obviously don't have...

Watford Fans must go mental with the owners for sacking mangers every season even when not playing bad.
