Really pleased today, that's the Watkins we all know

What, needs four goes to put one chance away? *winky thing*
didn't want to make it look easy

Should hope so. 4 goals in the next 26 not too much to ask for surely.

Not if your expectation is only 30!
I'd prefer to think bigger numbers!

I liked that when Martinez played him through he didn't fuck about, ran at the defender and fucked it hard at goal. Keep doing that and the goals will come.

Bloke next to me summed it up when he said it was like the old Watkins, taking a player on and having a shot.

Between Ings' class touch wearing the headphones with his mascot, and Ollie making sure his mate Woody had a good day out despite the score, we really do have some brilliant people representing the club on the pitch.

He was a proper handful all afternoon. I mentioned it on the match thread, but he shook hands with every single person on the Brentford bench. Classy guy. Good to have him back.

He also went to the Brentford fans and gave Woody a big hug, then went in goal while Woody took penalties agains him

I loved the way he did the knee slide celebration instead of the don't celebrate against your old club rubbish.

His best game in a very long time. You could almost see his confidence return when he flicked on a header perfectly from a long ball for Ings. After that he was back to his good old self.

First player this season to have 5 shots on target in a game.

Edit. I think 3 of them were for his goal.

Another abject performance in terms of ability and effort.
