How many good chances have we created for anyone after 4 games?

So Smirker, with the way we are playing which one of the £70mil strikers should we have got instead?

(Watkins created the chance for Buendia by the way which was blocked by Ireobhgam.)

Watkins is also allowed to create chances for others. His assists are always brought up. He hasn't been doing that either.

He's been atrocious.

We really should have sold him when the offers were there.


Your agenda is painfully dull - imagine looking at the way the side has played this year and thinking that is about one player. Maybe your judgement just isn’t up to much.

The only offer was from Arsenal and in football parlance it was  "derisory".

They've all been shit INCLUDING Watkins.

Only Watkins gets the excuse of 'no service' every time he's criticised.

He doesn't deserve to start any more.

But you leap with glee to the Watkins thread mid game, which says everything.

And replaced him with who, we had very little money and the money rumoured other teams were prepared to pay wouldn't get us much? If we keep playing to his weaknesses, basic ball control, no balls to run on to, don't be surprised you don't notice him on the pitch.

It's become a thing because he's been poor for a long time now but is seemingly immune from criticism.

I post on multiple.

How long does he have to go on like this before it is down to his own performance, in your opinion?

I think he's past his best / had his best season previously - but he's the best we've got - so it won't change
