Ollie Watkins

[LeeS]

Tuchel has picked Ivan Toney for the World Cup squad does this mean no Ollie?!

Shit. Where’s that reported?

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Ollie Watkins will be on the plane for the World Cup. Despite having a very mixed season he's delivered at the business end which is a great sign he can deal with pressure.

Oh he has to surely? I trust Tuchel's judgement.

[Grande Pablo]

Huge Toney rumours which is absolutely bonkers above not only Ollie but every other English striker who didn’t chase the Saudi riches.

[Smirker]

Toney in, confirmed.

[eye digress]

Very jovial but humble and self-deprecating in his parade speechette.

[PaulWinch again]

Sounds like he’s expected to be in, which if true is fully deserved.

[Somniloquism]

Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins is set to be included - after helping his side win the Europa League on Wednesday - alongside Al-Ahli striker Ivan Toney, who has scored 32 goals in 32 games in the Saudi Arabian league this season.

Ornstein reporting Ollie is in the WC squad - not a bad week for him, all told!

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Brilliant news. Delighted for him.

[Dave]

Decent comic timing it would seem from the pissed-up speeches from the bus.

Well deserved

[Ian.]

He’s fully deserved it and it wouldn’t surprise me if he has a great tournament. He’s on a brilliant run of form.

He’s a cracking lad and this season has been tough, he’s admitted it a few times lately and it must have been very frustrating for him. He’s really switched it on during the last two months and helped us achieve Champions League and a cup win. He’s certainly cemented his place in Villa folklore.

What an inspiration to any young footballer playing in the lower leagues learning their trade.

Just so glad he took his blindfold off!
