Gracia was sacked by the Hornets with the team bottom of the Premier League having failed to win any of their first four games of the season
Sacked Watford manager Javi Gracia said he was “surprised” by the sudden nature of his dismissal at Vicarage Road on Saturday as he thanked the club’s supporters.
Gracia was sacked by the Hornets’ owner Gino Pozzo with the team bottom of the Premier League having failed to win any of their first four games of the season.
He led the club to its best top-flight finish for 35 years last season as well as guiding Watford to the FA Cup final, but the team haven’t won since April and have only collected a single point so far this term.
