Played so well.  Could have had four or five tonight, such good movement and made Plop look, well, plop.

He worked the Liverpool defence like a pimp.

Only 4 players have more PL goals than him this season.

Last 14 games 15 G/A.

Finishing the season in style. Really thought it was over for him at the top level at Old Trafford. Probably over for Konate after tonight.

Wonder if anyone still thinks we'll be selling him to West Ham for £10m in the summer.

Indeed, I think there is absolutely no way he does and rightly so. He has plenty more to give.

He's as fit as a butchers dog, I'll give him that. Selected almost every game, pretty much 90 minutes every time, just as long as he has no more kids whilst here, why not?

So happy for Ollie,he's been fantastic these last few months. I've loved watching him since he joined but was worried it was coming to an end, here's to a few more years and hopefully he bags the winner on Wednesday (or McGinn!)

The way he's recovered after a sputtering season has been borderline-inspiring. Quite an extraordinary upturn for the business-end.

He’s definitely had some issues this season, we’ve obviously seen the debate in this thread and tonight he did mention carrying an injury after an international game. There must be something in it. He was nowhere near as mobile as he is now earlier in the season.

Great of Unai to give Watkins a special mention regarding the national team. He rarely calls out individual players but tonight he put all his cards on the table in support of Watkins going to the World Cup.

Last part of the season (where it really matters?) hes been brilliant.  Played a lot of football over the last 5 years - but when hes at his best hes exceptional.  His movement is as good as any player Ive seen.

As he doesn’t post on here, I’ll do it for him.

Since tge West Ham gane, he’s on fire, weve got every chance of beating anybody with him up front in this form. He will score on Wednesday
