Why unbeaten Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink is wary of Watford’s tactics

QUIQUE SANCHEZ FLORES is a master at getting the most out of his players, believes Guus Hiddink.

Hiddink’s Chelsea face Flores’ Watford tonight in the Premier League, with both sides keen for a win.

The Blues are determinedly pulling away from the relegation zone, while Watford are seeking a top-half finish this season.

 

And ahead of tonight’s clash Hiddink, who used to manage Flores when the Spaniard was a player at Valencia, is wary of Watford’s threat.

“I had him as a player at Valencia and later on (he went to) Real Madrid,” Hiddink told Chelsea TV.

“He is a person who can organise his team tactically very well.

“He has these key players who are very dangerous and he knows how to add the right balance towards them.

“I think that proves his is tactically very strong.”

Chelsea drew 2-2 with Watford at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season.

They remain unbeaten in nine games under Hiddink and could move up to 11th - a point off Watford - if they win tonight.
