Ollie Watkins

[N'ZMAV]

Toney is very much a penalty box player. A target man. Ollie is like Vardy in the way he presses the defenders non-stop.

[Percy McCarthy]

Devil's advocate, but if what if we banked north of £60 million for Ollie and brought Tammy Abraham back for £40 million or under?

Devil’s advocate as well, but Tammy. I think he’s a better player. Sooner have both though.

[KevinGage]

It's what Lyon and other big clubs (but clubs not quite in the elite bracket) have done well over the years. Sign for reasonable fees, raise the player to a better standard and then rinse any buying club for a small fortune. Which keeps the whole thing rolling.

You want to bid for our better players?

Fine. But it will hurt.

All that said, I don't see him at Tottingham. For one thing, Levy will probably offer Eric Dier, Joe Hart and a pack of Murray mints from the back of the sofa.

Smart businessman?  Bollocks.  It ain't smart business when you consistently can't complete the deals you want to do.

[LukeJames]

Levy wouldn't try it on again after the Grealish debacle. We wont sell him anyway.

[Toronto Villa]

Levy couldn’t sign Grealish when we were skint. He doesn’t have a hope now. The deluded fucking twats

[Lsvilla]

I hope he tries. And makes it public. So we can humiliate the c#nt.

[PaulWinch again]

Under no circumstances should we consider selling Ollie.

[aldridgeboy]

How about we keep Watkins, sign Tammy and Spurs continue to be fuck all but noise on the breeze.

I like this version

[LeeB]

Watkins is phenomenal,  I wouldn't swap him for anyone. He's the attacking version of Kante.

[Drummond]

Ollie Watkins is everything I'd want to see in a forward player. He's one of our best defenders too when he's chasing and harrying defenders.

Plus all he'll do is improve.

[LukeJames]

He's fucking brilliant, the kind of forward ive looked enviously at other clubs for having in the past.

[danno]

All the speculation seems to be seriously underestimating the debt Watkins will feel to Smith. The manager who has taken a chance on him twice now.

I always thought Dwight Yorke found it easier asking Gregory to leave, than he would have asking Little, the manager who made him his main centre forward.

[PaulWinch again]

Watkins is phenomenal,  I wouldn't swap him for anyone. He's the attacking version of Kante.

Yes precisely. His work rate is remarkable.

[itmustbe_it is!]

How about we keep Watkins, sign Tammy and Spurs continue to be fuck all but noise on the breeze.

Spot on

[andyh]

Ollie not going to make the cut for the final squad according to reports?
It’s a real shame if so.

I think it’s a bit of a bastard for players to be called into a provisional squad, join the training camp on Saturday and then be bombed out on Tuesday.
