I remember when him and Andy Gray shared the golden boot in 1976 1977. Gray scored a hat-trick against the Albion in the final game to catch him up on 29 for the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So of those who has the most non pen goals per game in a season? Has any of them matched Watkins 13 from 20/21?

HolteExile Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 I don't see us signing any players from Villareal in our immediate future - unless they're close to the end of their contract or the release clause is ridiculous. If there's one club the hierarchy won't want to sell to it's us. More likely is that Emery will know some of the targets Villareal had lined up and we might gazump them on a few of those. There's generally better value in the Spanish market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many were just different players without crowds and that will never happen again. Patrick Bamford was a world beater! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He scored 7 goals from open play and 5 penalties last season in the Prem. Watkins scored 10 goals from open play and 1 penalty. Watkins is just a superior goal scorer to Toney. That's before you take in Watkins is a significantly better all round player than him too. People need to look at the goal scoring stats of all these "superior goal scorers" relative to Watkins - under a useless manager no less - has produced. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
