Nigel Pearson’s rescue mission gathered more momentum here as Watford claimed another precious victory to take their tally to 10 points from five matches since their manager’s arrival. Gerard Deulofeu and Abdoulaye Doucouré scored their goals here before Pedro Neto struck back for Wolves, who, though off colour, did their utmost to summon an equaliser but were denied by determined hosts even after Christian Kabasele was sent off with more than 20 minutes to go.In the buildup to this game Troy Deeney attributed Watford’s improvement to the “no BS culture” that Pearson has fostered, explaining that the manager’s “morals and high standards” have inspired everyone at Vicarage Road. Watford’s captain also declared his side’s intention to “go after teams at home”, Watford having sometimes been too timid here earlier in the season.
