Claudio Ranieri gave Watford a classy goodbye message from his car as he left the club's training ground for the final time - and believes the Hornets can stay up under Roy Hodgson.
The Italian manager was dismissed by the Pozzo family who own Watford on Monday after just 112 days in charge of the Hornets, who slipped into the relegation zone via a 3-0 home loss to Norwich on Friday night.
Sportsmail revealed that Hodgson is set to arrive at Watford on Tuesday after signing a six-month contract at Vicarage Road and the sacked Ranieri believes the 74-year-old's expertise, along with new signings Samir, Edo Kayembe and Hassane Kamara, can keep the Hornets in the Premier League.
