Ighalo and Flores named player $ Manager of the month

Watford's fairytale Premier League season continued on
Friday as Quique Flores and Odion Ighalo were named the
division's manager and player of the month for December.

The Hornets won three, drew one and lost one of the five
league games they played in the final month of 2015, as
they finished the year in ninth place.

Wins over Norwich and Sunderland preceded a 3-0 win over
Liverpool and a 2-2 draw with Chelsea, though their bright
run came to an end as they lost 2-1 to Tottenham after
going down to 10-men.

Such impressive results were enough to see
Flores acknowledged as the best performing coach in the
league last month.

Ighalo, meanwhile, beat Mesut Ozil, Marko Arnautovic, Riyad Mahrez, Romelu Lukaku and Dele Alli to the player award, having scored five times in December.

Watford's top scorer netted a crucial goal against Norwich
before firing home the winner against Sunderland.

The Nigerian then added a double against Jurgen Klopp's
men and equalised against Spurs before Son Heung-min's
late winner saw his side suffer a defeat.
