Watford boss Roy Hodgson was pleased after their 0-0 draw at Manchester United.

In a tight affair, Watford's chances were limited but they remained focused defensively and kept an important clean sheet on the road.

“It was always going to be hard fought for teams like ourselves here," said Hodgson. “We held our own exceptionally well. I wasn't thinking they were going to score every time they had the ball.

“We should be fighting for our lives on the pitch. The attitude of the team was outstanding. It would've been nice to have shown more composure on the break but that's hard to do in our position. Once or twice, we got into great positions and perhaps that first decision let us down a little.

“The players should be proud of their performance. I didn't see players leaping around afterwards celebrating, which shows me they've got high standards. We grafted so well, well enough to deserve a point I thought."
