He's been decent since Christmas. Long may it continue.

Wasn't he decent before Christmas being as 9 of his goals and 6 of his assists were before then?

He's been decent since he joined us. Since Emery arrived he's been outstanding.

I cant heap enough praise on Ollie hes everything you want in a goal scoring forward.

If you compare him against someone like Rashford who is arguably a more gifted technical player, Ollie has surpassed him through hard work and dedication.

Definitely, he’s just perfect in that role for us.

Hindsight,  eh! Watkins has most certainly improved this season. Even more recently his touch is  beyond anything we've seen before and when was the last time he missed a few sitters in one game? Right now he's playing the best football of his life. 

Arsenal are going to need to have deep pockets come the summer. 😉

On tonight's showing Duran is still a pretty decent back-up. That in itself could be critically important now for the final push.

A cut can still be pretty serious. Hopefully they can get it sorted quick.

If it’s on or around the knee he won’t be playing Sunday.

Not necessarily, although I expect him to be bandaged up.
