Tom Cleverley states his relationship with Watford CEO Scott Duxbury is "fantastic" in what has been a "turbulent" time as manager.
Cleverley's comments came after the Hornets lost to Frank Lampard's Coventry City 2-1 on Saturday despite a spirited fightback.
That was on the back a statement from Watford on Friday night dismissing reports in Spain that he was set to be replaced as "pure speculation", while on Saturday owner Gino Pozzo delivered his public support for the head coach.
"It's been quite turbulent – I'm quite good at not taking things to heart, good or bad," Cleverley told BBC Three Counties Radio.
