Watford sack boss Still after less than three months

In the past two months the results have been awful, the performances dreadful and tactically the Hornets have lacked structure and recognised game-plan. The players have looked fed up as well - morale, confidence, belief and team spirit is at rock bottom and there was no way that Still was going to survive this. Owner Gino Pozzo doesn't hang around if the situation gets close to this point, let alone reaches it, and he was on the wrong end of chanting from home supporters in yesterday's defeat. Like so many other ex-Watford head coaches, Still will argue that his chances were slim given the chaotic and misaligned culture of the club which has hampered them for so many years. He certainly has a point. But, for me, he's been way out of his depth as a motivator and tactical coach and lacked the aura to lead at such a dysfunctional club.
