The Ollie Watkins Thread

[Platypus]

Do they still get an actual physical cap ?

Yes, but like in The Tripods.

 

[Platypus]

Jake Livermore somehow has 7 caps.

Assuming those are bump caps.

 

[sirdennis]

Shouldn't that read 7 knee cappings to his name ?

Every generation gets to say this at some point. Steve Bull, Carlton Palmer, Nicky Barmby, Francis Jeffers all part of the same conversation.

We've probably got the most exciting group of creative attacking players in my lifetime. More a shame about the manager scared of his own shadow.

We probably have, but still we will win nothing.

Just had to google that to make sure you werent spreading false news.

No with a manager who plays a back 7 and Mason Mount instead of Gealish

 

[Platypus]

Why do they make it so difficult on themselves?

Shit Goalie
Villa Back Four
Henderson Rice
Foden Madison Jack
Kane

Done.

Yes, I know this is the Watkins thread. He'll be watching.

Great goal Ollie is that another £1m for Brentford

Not a bad 12 months or so for Ollie. Championship player of the year, big money move to the best club in the world, hat trick vs the champions, England call up, scores on debut.

From the BBC website:

Ollie Watkins is the first Aston Villa player to score on his England debut since Darius Vassell in February 2002 against the Netherlands.

More importantly £250k to Exeter City

22 appearances 6 goals.

He went to the 2002 World Cup as well.

Yeah I'd checked. I'd totally wiped that.

Kudos to Ollie.

Probably taught how to do it by Doug Ellis.

That‘ll shut the Leeds fans up about Bamford.
