Watford coach, Walter Mazzarri, has told Odion
Ighalo to accept his decision to leave him on the
bench against Leicester City next week and be
ready when his time comes to start.
The Nigeria international has endured a slow start
to this season, scoring only two goals for the
Hornets.
Igahlo was left out of the starting team in their
2-1 win over the Premier League champions, as
Mazzarri tweaked his formation.
The Italian manager has asked the striker, to
continue working hard and wait for his chance,
ahead of Sunday’s trip to Stoke City.
“There is no message,” Mazzarri replied when
asked about Ighalo.
“What I do is watch my team during training, I
study the next opponent and then make my
decision on what is the best thing considering all
these factors.
“Ighalo has been professional and accepted the
decision. When he played, even when he didn’t
score, he played as well as the whole team has
done.
“When we lost and we played badly, he played
badly with the whole team, there is no difference.
“I tell him he has to be ready when his moment
comes.”
Watford are currently in eighth place with 18
points.
