We have to play like a bookies favourite if we want to justify it says watfordfc skipper Tom Cleverley
Club captain Tom Cleverley says the gap between the Premier League and Championship is so large nowadays that he understands why the three relegated teams are the favourites to go back up.
“I’m in a position where I can comment on the gap between the Premier League and the Championship, and it’s massive now,” he said. “So we will be one of the favourites but we have to play like we are from day one. Any expectation placed upon us we have to deal with.” “It’ll be a big test,” admitted Cleverley. “It helps massively when squads have been together for long periods, and the Sheffield United squad has. They’ve played the same system for years and while we could have been given easier first games, I know it’s a challenge we’ll be ready for.”
