Ollie Watkins

[usav]

He's doing just fine.

He is, but his confidence has to have taken a hit.  Needs a goal in the next game, yesterday would have been an ideal stage to get back on the scoresheet.

[Toronto Villa]

He's getting into great spots. What he needs to work on a bit is his timing of his runs so that he is still getting to the ball first. Yesterday, had he started literally a fraction sooner he would still have scored. VAR is a pain in the balls for all players now. He has to adjust accordingly because it isn't going away.

[ASHTONVILLA]

Penalties should stay with the player best at them, and AEG is scoring them whereas Ollie was fluffing them.

Pleased with Watkins thus far. Works hard, and has scored a reasonable haul considering the step up from the Championship. I would rather he had more competition though, and think that it would help him by taking some of the pressure off.

If it wasn't for the farce that is VAR, he'd have two more goals already.  As it is, 6 goals from 12 goals is a good return. 8 from 12 would have been truly amazing.

How that goal against the tesco bags was disallowed that should have been given I hate VAR Ollie his doing well I'm glad we have him playing for us.

[PaulWinch again]

No luck - he was excellent today.

[Toronto Villa]

Absolutely love him, despite him being so unlucky. Disallowed goals, great saves and posts. Fuck me the poor bastard but he keeps on going.

[Ads]

Yes I know he didn't score but my word what a performance from him. He's like Vardy. Part man, part energy drink. He runs centre halves all the live long day and he sets the tone and tempo. An absolute pest, the goals will come.

[LukeJames]

Made it feel like it was still 11 v 11, absolute trojan!

I hope on a personal level he's not dissapointed not to score because that was the ultimate playing for the team performance.

[boutrosboutrosgnarly]

Unlucky not to score, I thought he was brilliant today.

[Legion]

He is superb.

[DrGonzo]

Well he's going to have to pay to get the woodwork repainted at this rate!  Holds the ball up so well considering he isn't the biggest lad out there and has great awareness of the movement around him.  How many 1-2's does he play? Excellent.  A bargain.

[supertom]

Someone is going to be on the recieving end of a Watkins hattrick soon. Brilliant player. His all round play is excellent and he's absolutely key to how we play. Goals will come. It's rotten luck more than anything. He works the keeper consistently, but he's been buggered by VAR a couple of times and has hit the woodwork a lot this season. Really like him.

[Rudy65]

The goals will come. Some team is going to pay big time soon

[Steve67]

Great player. Unselfish.  Worth every penny.
