Watford boss Quique Flores wants 40-point target "as quick as possible"

Watford boss Quique Flores says that his team will be able to play with freedom once they reach their 40-point target in the Premier League.

Watford manager Quique Flores has claimed that his players will have more freedom on the pitch once they reach their 40-point target.

The Hornets have 36 points ahead of this weekend's match against Bournemouth at Vicarage Road.

"We are really close," Flores told reporters. "I would like to get to the objective as quick as possible. Leicester City is the example. They achieved 40 points and then they are freer on the pitch. They feel really, really positive and everything. This is ideal. We are really close."

Watford are currently ninth in the Premier League table, just two points behind eighth-placed Liverpool.
