His attitude is rotten and has been since the first game of the season.

Bad attitude? Doesn’t sound like model pro Ollie.

Poor form, for sure.

I think for the first time at Villa he's got someone breathing down his neck for his place. So he looks even more anxious.

He just can't play with another striker, and when asked to, he seems to disappear up his own backside.

He could always run a bit more, commit defenders and show some leadership. Huge Watkins fan but he's pissed me off all season. In big clubs there's going to be rotation and competition for places. Watkins for me sulks when Duran comes on. Absolutely shocking tonight again.

Fortunately for Watkins, Duran performed like George Weahs cousin when he came on tonight.

He went into his shell when Ings arrived. He looks just like that again now.

Right now he can't play up front by himself either. Not sure what is wrong with him, he still magically gets into the scoring positions but the ball is his enemy. Unai needs to decide to either stick or twist. Duran when he has played alone up front looks just as frustrated but I do fancy him more to finish the chance.

There's a lot of pressure on him with nothing much happening from anyone else either of late.

I'm sure he'll be fine and settle into a rhythm again soon. Preferably starting with a hat trick on Saturday.

He is isolated for much of the game, without genuine speedy wingers who cross the ball ( wouldn't that make a change) he is starved of service.

Needs to be dropped. He has been rubbish most of the season and cost us points with his misses.

Duran deserves a start now. If ollie wants his spot back he has to improve
