Watford coach Walter Mazzarri has insisted that he wants continuity from his side regardless of their opponents in the Premier League.

The Hornets welcome Manchester United to Vicarage Road on Sunday, when Mazzarri is calling for his charges to produce some consistency without worrying about the stature of their opponents.

"What I ask from [Troy] Deeney and the whole squad - but Deeney is captain - is continuity," Mazzarri said ahead of the clash, according to Sky Sports News.

"[Victory over United] would bring us three points closer to our objective. But an experienced coach like me knows the Premier League does not finish this weekend, so we will have to take it to the next game.

"If we happen to win, after two days of being very happy it's up to me to tell the players they immediately need to concentrate on the next game."

Watford currently hold 12th spot in the league standings after four games played so far this season.
