Watkins won't get a look-in now that they're into sudden death and penalties (Toney takes penalties, remember?!!).

The last thing I want to see is Watkins stepping up to take a penalty for England
our record is not that great with Southgate and  Vassell and the pressure would be to much for my heart to take
That and the fact he never fills me with much confidence when he takes them

Yes, he scored his penalty against Lille, but pretty sure that wasn't what he intended as he slipped on his arse as he hit it.

I almost want him to miss for England, just so this bullshit reason for picking him isn't valid anymore.

Plus, I think Toney is a bit of a twat...

Play Ollie for 119 minutes then if still level then hook him, simple.

Thai man should be playing for England. He would be the difference.

Presumably wouldn't be eligible?

He just can't curry any favour with Gareth.

It's obvious that Southgate has a (sizzling) beef with Ollie.

The nightmare scenario now is that England will get knocked out in the semi final and Watkins will pick up a bad injury playing in the game for third place.

I think we’ll find he’s Gareth’s secret weapon for the Final.
