I noticed a really interesting stat earlier, Watkins has played 17 league games and got 7 goals but if you split that into games with and without Barkley in the team it's 7 in 7 and 0 in 10.
I'm glad he scored he played well.
His finish for the offside goal was excellent.He's very Vardy like in my opinion. He plays off the shoulder and for 90 minutes he runs the centre halves and the full backs. Down the channels, left or right, through the middle, he is a non-stop nuisance.Vardy is obviously become very prolific, but the man has more devilment than Ollie. If he can add that to his game, then he will improve further.The worry is, he is so crucial to how we play, that we need somebody as dogged as him as back up. Yes goals count and 7 in 17 is good and puts him on 15 for the season, but the effect his running has cannot be ignored.
Let’s face it he’s becoming the player that we all wished for.

He may need to work on his timing a little. He's on the shoulder so much that he seems to be borderline offside all the time.
He's much more physical than I thought he'd be.
