My issue with asking that question is more to do with are they clearly the 2nd and 3rd best strikers in England right now and I think that's an obvious yes. Both will go along with Kane and that'll be it so the comparision should be those 3 to players like Bamford and Wilson.

Each time I watch Ollie Watkins it reconfirms that he is everything we want in a Villa player. There are players in other positions that are similar or come very close but in terms of his ability, his immense potential and most importantly his attitude and desire, he’s got it all. And the latter two traits, I believe are what will help him become the player we all want him to become.

He's got the potential to score 25+ in the PL.

Unless by some miracle the second yellow is overturned, Ollie now misses the game vs Everton on Thursday. Which is fucking big deal and a major victory for Everton given how he dominated their CB’s the last time out. It’s a massive blow for us.

Yellow  cards can't be appealed unless it is mistaken identity.

It’s never getting overturned. He wasn’t wearing the zebra outfit.

The coaching team will have a plan in place in case Ollie is injured or suspended.

It can't be overturned and neither should it be.  It was blatant simulation.  He's let the club down badly today

Watkins did really well to simulate Henderson kicking him in the knee

He didn’t let anyone down. He hasn’t all season.

Personally, I’m looking forward to seeing Davis get 90 minutes.  Watkins deserves a break anyway.

I don't think his first yellow was a foul anyway. By then, Pogba had made three fouls (one after twenty seconds on  Mcginn) and wasn't booked.
