Sulberto21 Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 I still think he’s got the game to be a good premier league player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khizzy Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Sell Watkins in the summer, get a proven goalscorer in and let Archer and Duran fight for the second striker spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupinthe5th Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) He had plenty of chances at Villa coming off the bench tbf and never really took his chance. Edited February 15, 2023 by Lupinthe5th 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's so much more to the striker role than finishing, he needs to develop that to be ready for the PL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Just seen the finishes on sky sports news, no hesitation from him, comes very naturally. I really hope we don't let him go, he needs to be part of the setup here next season and get regular game time. Imagine in a few years, big Jhon Duran winning headers for Archer to bury....If they get promotion they will want to keep him, we must not sell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MotoMkali Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 5 minutes ago, Khizzy said: He's not exactly prolific in the PL. I'd rather we break the bank for a top goalscorer and give a chance to one of our own, who potentially has a much higher ceiling than Watkins. Duran will also get a chance to show what he's capable of. Honestly, we can do better than Watkins. No we cannot. Straight up there are maybe 30 strikers in world football better than him. It's hard to argue someone like Mitrovic is better as well. Becuase of Watkins additional defensive work and interplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only slight concern with promoted teams is that many go down the route of thinking they need someone proven, and start chucking their new found wealth at it. If we were to send him out again it would need to be somewhere he is going to start most/every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
