Following a season-ending defeat, Watford has sacked manager Tom Cleverley, reflecting a troubling trend in the club's leadership with Gino Pozzo at the helm since 2012. Despite an initial promising start to the season, Watford faltered in the Championship, positioning them at the bottom half of the table. Pozzo's frequent managerial changes have drawn criticism despite past successes, and this latest move, particularly against a beloved player, may jeopardize that fragile bond with the fanbase as the club continues its decline since their 2019 FA Cup final run.
"Cleverley has become the club's 21st managerial departure since 2012... the man in ultimate control has remained the same: Gino Pozzo, Watford's owner."
"While initial success might have answered his outside critics, Watford have been on a downward trajectory since reaching the FA Cup final in 2019."
