Quique Flores and Odion Ighalo make it a Watford double as they are named Manager of the Month and Player of the Month respectively.

Watford manager Quique Flores and his striker Odion Ighalo have dominated this month's Premier League awards.

Flores has been named Manager of the Month - the first won by a Watford boss - after his team claimed three victories and a draw in December.

Only a defeat to Tottenham Hotspur blemished their otherwise impressive month as they claimed wins over Norwich City, Sunderland and Liverpool, while they also restricted Chelsea to a draw.

Ighalo made it a Watford double by scooping Player of the Month after he scored five goals, two of which came in the Hornets' 3-0 win over Liverpool.

In this season so far, the striker, who has been linked with a move to Arsenal, has found the back of the net 13 times.

Watford's return to the top flight has been a positive one so far as they are currently 10th in the table after 21 games.
