Ollie Watkins

[PaulWinch again]

So we've moved on from "we're not creating anything" to "he's injured and needs a rest".

The amount of excuses for this player is genuinely hilarious. He's not nursing an injury. He's been terrible for 18 months.

The sooner he's sold and replaced the sooner we can progress.

I'd like to see Ivan Toney come in.

“Terrible for 18 months”, which covers the period of last season where he got 16 goals and 8 assists, sure.

More importantly, you haven’t a clue whether he has an injury - but you appear to be so wrapped up in your, well, strange take, that I think you’d rather he was rubbish than there be an explanation that might mean he could get back to his best. Weird.

Am I seriously supposed to be impressed by 16 goals in 54 games? That's about the same strike rate as Timo Werner when he flopped at Chelsea.

Can we just not go through this bullshit pantomime again, it's so fucking tedious.

Three hatricks in the next 3 games should do it. Reminds me of a long time poster on here who hated Alan Hutton so much he pissed off for a few months after Hutton scored against the Rags. Truth be told he's never been the same since.

You do realise though that’s not poor form across 18 months though? That’s why performance is typically measured season to season. He did well last season, his goal scoring and assists reflect that. He hasn’t done well this season.
