Watford have had five managers in two years and there has been no indication of who they will turn to next.

Munoz is the first Premier League manager to be sacked this season.

The club also knocked Crystal Palace out of the Carabao Cup in the second round.

However, results started to slip with just two league wins in the seven fixtures played this season.

And they made a third-round exit from the Carabao Cup with a 3-1 defeat to Stoke in September.

Watford  next game  after the international break against Liverpool on 16 October in a league fixture.
