Ollie Watkins

[Footy-Vill]

Footy, 12 minimum.

4 in 4 now.
7 goals with 15 matches to play.

Brilliant finish today.
Keep it up Ollie.

Is there any previous on a player having scored in 3 consecutive losses?

[N'ZMAV]

Emery has certainly improved him. He's looking better than at any point.

[Dante Lavelli]

Emery has certainly improved him. He's looking better than at any point.

There was an interview with Watkins somewhere and to paraphrase Emery has told him to stay more central, where he can score more goals.

[brontebilly]

Quality goal earlier. Full of confidence and super shot off his left after backing the defender into his box.

[PaulWinch again]

Yep he’s scoring good goals.

Absolutely, he’s done brilliantly with Ollie. He’s definitely improved his game so much. I don’t know the stats but since late November he’s been involved with lots of our goals, either assists or scoring them.

Took his goal very well today, not sure he needed to come off to be honest.

That is probably basic coaching for top level strikers. I remember an interview with Ellen White from a few years ago when she mentioned that a coach (possibly even Phil Neville which would be slightly bizarre) had told her to stay within the width of the posts and her goal output improved dramatically.

I think it's 5 goals and 2 assists in 9 league games under Emery.

Ollie is quoted as saying very similar following advice from Emery.

Thought he had a very good game, normally I am one of his biggest critics

Agree, surprised he came off.

[Risso]

Yes he's been very good, excellent finish with what I think is his weaker foot.

[LeonW]

Ollie very good again today. We’re seeing consistency. Yet another game against a top side where he had one chance and took it. His all round play (including hold up) very good too.
