Sheffield United: Why Watford star believes Saturday's game against the Blades is 'huge' after poor start to Premier League season
Quique Sanchez Flores’ men are bottom of the Premier League table after picking up just two points from their opening seven games.

"But Arsenal, Man City away, Wolves away is not the easiest three fixtures to come into and, with no disrespect to Sheffield United because they're a really competitive side, but we have to be really at it next weekend.
"We know that - we've been in the game long enough to know that next Saturday's a huge game."
