Deeney and Ighalo strike at West Ham to spark Watford's season into life

Saturday's 4-2 win at West Ham was breathtaking stuff from Watford, especially as they had to come from 2-0 down.

Once Troy Deeney forced an error from James Collins before curling in an exquisite equaliser just before half time, there was only ever going to be one winner.

Positives

Walter Mazzarri's men deserve huge credit for staying in the game when 2-0 down. The two first half goals that gave them parity were forged from sheer determination and left West Ham devastated. This was a welcome fillip ahead of the visit of Jose Mourinho and Manchester United next Sunday.
