It’s a total mystery as to why he has lost his first touch and ability to kick it into the net.
He still gets into great positions and pulls defenders all over the place. 
I wonder if they have had him talking to sports psychologists.

The penny has mostly dropped on here then, albeit after the title is long gone and CL qualification looks to be going. I said we'd pay for it months ago if he was still our starting striker. Sad that it's ended up happening.

Weird that he's 'injured' yet still being started every game when we've not long bought a new striker.

To be fair you called out his decline a long time ago 👍

I’ve been saying Salah is shit for 6 years. Turns out I was right all along.

Watkins first touch has always been shit the fact that he scored a lot of goals saved him, he will be gone seasons end along with half a dozen others, if we can sell them.

He won't be easy to shift because nobody's matching his wages unless Blues come up.

It appears he has a very serious case of the yips.

Whether that is permanent or temporary who knows. Presumably it's not happening in training., Which begs the question, why?
