Let’s hope whatever caused Ollie to come off isn’t serious.

Might be the same as the other week, felt tight and so subbed.

Hope he’s ok. Based on zero knowledge at all I would hope the fact he made it to half-time suggests it’s more precautionary/a niggle.

Hope so, would be tempted to rest him against Citeh if he's not 100%.

Unai Emery on Ollie Watkins: "He was feeling something in his hamstring and I think we have to wait for tomorrow. Hopefully it's not a big injury but it's his hamstring."

Great thats a 2-3 week injury at best

That leaves duran and zaniolo as our only striking options

Hmm not great. Having said that though it obviously hasn’t gone, so it might only be a short time out.

Well we'll have to win the league without him for a few games then.

Based on tonight, that might be ok.

You don't really want to go into the Man City game without him, obviously, but I'd assume they're setting up for a team led in attack by Watkins. It could throw them for a loop if we send out Zaniolo or something instead.

I think he’ll be out vs Man City which is a big blow. Time for big JD to step up. Or maybe Zaniolo gets the start up front.
