Ollie Watkins

[CT Villan]

He's clearly labouring this season but I can't shake the thought that he could still be struggling with an injury. Wasn't his knee causing a big problem a few months back - if he's playing through pain and/or inflammation, it's no surprise he's not operating at 100%.

It's true that Ollie has lost a yard and lost more in confidence but it is also true that supply to him has been at a minimum. We are playing the Arsenal way, numerous passing across the forward line trying to find ever decreasing gaps. When Ollie was at his best we were getting the ball into the penalty box a lot quicker and before defences were able to crowd him out.

I saw an Arsenal fan call it the "Horseshoe of Despair" on the Grauniad comments section for something or other. Liked the line and thought we are similar. It's effective anyway. Also the only funny and/or interesting thing anyone related to Arsenal has said online ever.

I dont pay attention to Stanley Collymore as he always seems to be trying to sell our best players to the Sky wank 6

I can't take anything he says about the Villa seriously, he's supposed to ba a Villa fan, yet never broke a sweat for us. If he'd put half the effort in to the team as he did weighing his missus in, we might value his opinion.

Cascarino is another chancer who I can't ever listen to about the Villa, another who stole a living in the claret and blue.

Thanks for everything, but utterly mental if he starts the next game and needs to improve massively if we aren't going to get rid in the summer.

Should be forced to watch that first Wolves goal six thousand times until he learns how to shoot first time.

[TopDeck113]

Another game; another waste of a shirt.  His ship has sailed.

[Mellin]

Yeah, he's done. Gone on way too long now.

Can't shirk the smirk.

[brontebilly]

It's over I'm afraid.

[Halfway to Moseley]

Sad to see it end like this as he’s been brilliant for us, but he needs to not be starting the next game.

[manic-road]

Hasn't really shone all season, the times he has a chance to get a shot off and makes the wrong decision.

[PeterWithesShin]

Tammy has to start v Chelsea.

[ChicagoLion]

I was astonished to see him start, it’s not his fault the manager keeps picking him.
But to then leave him on when he was so abject was bizarre.

[Des Little]

Shouldn’t have started, he’s no longer first choice.

[Steve67]

Really anonymous tonight. 

[Jon Crofts]

Finished and has been for weeks.

[Bobby Boy]

Finished and has been for weeks.

Yet Emery keeps starting him. It's like a form of self-sabotage.
