Ollie Watkins

I'm assuming the Rogers air shot had a slight touch which took the assist away from Ollie's cross.

Hard to tell if Rogers does get any kind of touch.

Well either way, it’s Watkins play that makes it and that’s why he’s such a good forward all round and critical to us.

Well BBC is evidently wrong. In any case, his finish was top class.

One of those that an official assist is from the last person on your team who touched it IF it doesn't touch an opposition player. And they all think it brushed off Rogers. Some FF leagues will score for the last home player to touch it even if it is a saved shot, off the bar or tackled by a defender to the finisher, or even if causing an OG.

People are so desperate to bump his numbers up they're claiming assists that aren't his? 😂

Although when you were trying to rubbish his assist numbers, you stated most of them shouldn't have been given as the player beforehand did all the work........

No I didn't I said that assist stats don't paint a full picture.

Mad how people have resorted to lying in the Smirker vs Watkins debate.

First saying assists don't count and now this

better by Ollie today - we played longer more often than usual and it suited his game

Yep, he looked a more confident Ollie and took his goal really well. Probably should have set up a 4th goal but much more like it.
