'Not only Dennis' - Watford boss satisfied with his team especially in attack
Published: December 14, 2021Watford manager Claudio Ranieri says he is satisfied with how his team has been performing in recent weeks.
Though Emmanuel Dennis has stolen most of the headlines, the Italian football tactician has been impressed with other squad members, especially in attack.
The Nigeria international has notched seven goals and produced five assists in fifteen appearances in the Premier League, a goal involvement of 12 bettered only by Mohamed Salah.
Dennis has been directly involved in nine goals in his last seven Premier League games for Watford, having a hand in 64 percent of the goals the Hornets have scored in these matches.
Asked at Tuesday's press conference if Dennis has been a tremendous signing, Ranieri was quoted as saying by Watford's official website : "Everyone is playing well, not only Dennis.
"I am happy because we make lots of chances to score goals. Of course, we have to improve our defensive way because when I say the defensive line, I don’t just mean the defence – everyone must be involved to stop the opponent."

Belgian champions Club Brugge ended their association with Dennis in the summer in exchange for four million euros.
