Ollie Watkins

[Nunkin1965]

I think he'd pop up all the way across a front 3.
An absolute handful and a complete nightmare for defenders.
When i see him play like he did tonight it just reinforces my opinion that signing a striker and pushing him out wide would be a massive mistake.

People are talking about playing him in a front three, not at right back.

He'd be all over defenders in a front 3.
I'm not sure it matters where he plays. On the right, on the left, in the middle he'll be an absolute pain in the arse for defences everywhere.
What an amazing first season he's having.
BBC stated that he's one goal off equalling the record for top English Villa scorer in the PL.
Julian Joachim managed 14 so hopefully Ollie will power past that before the season is over.

Southgate must be thinking, tireless running, closing down space, harassing defenders, holding the ball up,  running off the ball and he can finish too.
Might need some of that in June.

[London Villan]

He is just brilliant. Get him on a very long contract, because he is as important to our future as Jack is.

He was outstanding last night, many players would have stayed down when he was challenged by Holgate which should have led to a red card but he had the drive and desire to get up and score the goal.

Ron Saunders would’ve loved him, he’s for me the embodiment of what Aston Villa should be about.

Hard work, determination, quality and humility. A brilliant, brilliant signing.

Imagine that belting out from a packed Holte End!

A 'Jamie Vardy' in the making.

He's a better player than Calvert-Lewin, I know that.

You'll be gutted to know that quizzed to choose one of them on MOTD last night,  "Wrighty" and "Muscles" (Micah) chose the Everton chap who has the same speaking voice as Michael Owen, the poor bugger.

Playing them together would be pretty impressive. DC-L has improved massively and is a decent front runner.

[Risso]

I think Calvert-Lewin is a cracking player personally, really like him. He's the sort of player I'd hope that Davis might develop into.

Agree DC-L just shades it, if only one goes

not sure why Lineker asked them both to compared Calvert-Lewin and Watkins. Yeah, ok - they're both forwards, but they're nothing alike. It was poor.

I think it was more a case of 'if you could only take one to the Euro's, which would you take?' Truth is with Abraham being out of favour and Vardy retired, they'll probably both go along with Kane.
