The 27-year-old scored both goals as his side took all three points at Selhurst Park and his manager feels he could combine well with Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy for the Three Lions
Watford head coach Quique Sanchez Flores feels Troy Deeney is good enough to play for England after the striker scored twice in a 2-1 win over Crystal Palace.
The 27-year-old scored his eighth and ninth goals of the season at Selhurst Park to move his side into eighth place in the Premier League table.
Speaking after the game Flores was delighted to see Deeney back on the scoresheet as the striker grabbed his first goals since Boxing Day.
"I said this week in a press conference that this kind of player can combine with anyone – with [Harry] Kane, with [Jamie] Vardy, with any of the player,” he told reporters.
"I want to stop to talking about that, though, because I am not the manager of the national team.
"He always is really positive and he's a really important player for us, for the system. He represents the values of Watford very well.
"He knows everything about Watford's history, he's played in every category of the leagues and for strikers it's always very important to score.
"I think he has an amazing personality. He is always ready for everything. He's not just one striker for us; he started the season for us as a striker, then the second striker, now an assistant."
Watford now have 36 points, just five points behind Manchester United in fifth, but Flores is still more concerned with reaching the 40-point mark – traditionally the figure needed to guarantee safety.
"The win is very important for us because it means we are very close to our target, to keep in the Premier League for next year, to keep Watford growing up in the future," he added
"I'm very happy with the performance of the players, I'm very happy in the way we got the result. It's very difficult to win here in this stadium against this opponent with this coach.
"They wanted to change [their recent results] for a good run. We didn't permit the change and we won – that is very important for us."
