Yeah as soon as it came to him I thought these are exactly the sort of ones he likes to pop in the bottom corner… lovely that it was such a ‘typical’ Watkins goal! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punkiller1981 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Not cheered an England goal all tournament but I did with this one. That goal is what this guy is all about, making runs good touch and bang. There are few better in the world currently at doing that. And on top of that what a great guy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisvilla4 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 So emotional and so pleased for our Ollie. I was secretly pleased Saka's goal got chalked off as I knew that if it stood, Ollie wouldn't get on. I hoped and prayed he'd score, and he did. So so proud. The irony is, I said to my wife I hope it's not extra time and pens as I want to sleep, as if I'm going to sleep now!

MotoMkali Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 25 minutes ago, OhioVilla said: It's incredible how much better he is than Kane, particularly with this set of teammates around him. Watkins, imo, is easily the best English Striker. Wouldn't sell him for $1 billion Kane just gets in the way of our 3 behind the striker. Rashford and Sterling worked because they wanted to get in behind but Foden, Saka, Bellingham, Palmer and Eze don't want to run in behind so you need your striker to make the runs instead and Kane either can't or won't And the drop off from those 5 to Gordon and Rashford is a lot bigger than kane to Watkins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Watkins offers something very different, and should be considered for more game time. We’ve seen what he can do when given 10 mins… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the club is smart they will also re-share the video of the kid styling his hair like Ollie. Just a wonderful, heartfelt moment. He's the man of the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this. I think more than grealish not going , rashford was a bigger surprise cause for all his lack of form he does fit the system with Kane very well. Anyway back to your point. Kane is a great striker but he doesn’t fit with Bellingham and foden. It used to be the case that that didn’t matter cause foden/bellingham were young and Kane was a world beater. But now it’s at a stage where you’ve got to sacrifice Kane for the greater good of the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
