Cape Town - Quique Sanchez Flores has given Watford every chance of staying up by using the transfer window to his benefit this summer.
Watford's transfers rated: 8/10
Watford have bolstered their squad with a number of good additions but Sebastian Prodl and Allan Nyom look to be the best of the bunch.
Transfer summary:
In: Sebastian Prodl (Werder Bremen, free), Giedrius Arlauskis (Steaua Bucharest, free), Matej Vydra (Udinese, undisclosed), Valon Behrami (Hamburg, £3m), Jose Holebas (Roma, undisclosed), Etienne Capoue (Tottenham Hotspur, undisclosed), Allan Nyom (Udinese, undisclosed), Miguel Britos (Napoli, undisclosed), Jose Manuel Jurado (Spartak Moscow, undisclosed), Steven Berghuis (AZ, £4.6m), Alessandro Diamanti (Guangzhou Evergrande, loan), Nathan Ake (Chelsea, loan), Obbi Oularé (Club Brugge, undisclosed), Adlene Guedioura (Crystal Palace, undisclosed), Victor Ibarbo (Cagliari, loan)

Best bit of business: Some excellent signings considering the club has just earned promotion - will be interesting to see what deadline day signing Victor Ibarbo can muster in the Premier League.
Worst bit of business: Not sure they did any bad business.
