Watford will ask their next manager to lower the age of the team regardless of whether they stay in the Premier League.

Only three of the XI who started the 4-0 defeat by Manchester City on Tuesday were under the age of 29.

The club's hierarchy feel a number of their young stars have not been given enough opportunities this season and want the next manager to play the likes of Joao Pedro and Domingos Quina more.
