Relegation duel against Norwich clearly lost
Most recently, Watford lost 3-0 at home to on Friday Norwich City, another direct competitor in the fight for relegation.
This is the second time the club from near London has to look for a coach this season. Ranieri’s predecessor, the Spaniard Xisco Munoz, had taken over Watford FC in the second-tier Championship ten months earlier and led to promotion to the Premier League. There he only picked up seven points in seven games – as many as Ranieri in 13 games.
