I hope they show our penalty claim from first half although I fear that won’t make the cut!
It was never a pen, not even close (keeper / watkins)

I’ve only seen it from the other end of the ground. Seemed to take his legs from under him!

Nah. Keeper knocks the ball away, Watkins runs into him without ever really getting near the ball.

Assuming we're talking about the one where the Leicester keeper messes up and miscontrols in the six yard box.

No that sounds like the one where he was through one on one.

This was the other side of the goal. The keeper tried to kick the ball but missed and Wtkins seemed set to score then the keeper whacked both legs from under him!

The players were complaining for some time about it!

He went through one on one and the keeper makes a decent save . Neither are anywhere near pens .

No, sounds like we're talking about the same thing. Leicester playing it out from the back, their keeper miscontrols it.

It might look from the other end of the ground that he misses, but he doesn't, he toes the ball away from Watkins who doesn't quite get to the ball in time.

i think he's talking about the one when Tielemans threads him through , one on one the keeper slides out and takes the ball, then watkins and his knee hits the keepers head and he's down for a while . It's good goalkeeping .

Yes that one! Makes sense how you explain it.

There was huge amount of booing and Villa wanted VAR to look at it.

Watkins has had another poor game . Tielemans and Rogers put it on a plate for him today . He has to bury at least one of those .

From the replays, his reaction time is not good.

The one Rogers plays him in , he makes it too easy for the keeper , nice height etc . You've got to bury these chances if you want to be regarded as a top quality Nr 9 .

This Southampton manager reminds me of Mowbray at the Albion in the PL.  wants points for artistic merit.
