You can always award him your own golden boot where only certain goals count if you like I think in some countries if players are level for the Golden Boot they take away the penalties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An extreme example, 'arry "the diver" kane's penalties that he continually cheats to win by being "clever", I don't consider them as worthy of a player scoring in open play ( and I don't care who the player is). Yes he still has to score from the spot but it's a free hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he still has to score from the spot but it's a free hit. If Watkins was better at penalties he would be taking ours and then no one would be wanting to remove penalties from the equation. Maybe it’s something he can work on to become an even more complete striker as it would put him in a stronger position for the golden boot. Changing the award to better suit the deficiencies of our striker seems the wrong way around to me. Better to change our striker’s abilities to better meet the requirements of the award.

S-Platt Posted May 5 VT Supporter Share Posted May 5 I don't care about The Golden Boot I do about breaking 20 league goals in a season. Needs 1 more in 3 games that record has stood since 1981. Also needs beat Gabbys Aston Villa Premier League top scorer record. Needs another 16 for that. Had a great season regardless of anything else and he will be busting a gut for the team regardless of personal glory. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same I'm not worried about him out scoring a "£60m" striker who gets paid £500k a week to score goals for a £2bn team cheating their way to another PL title I'm worried about him breaking the villa 20 goal hoodoo, firing us to 4th, getting gabbys record (next year) and making the euros 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Be nice if he can beat Engalnd’s Cole Palmer though, not that it will guarantee Watkins a place at the Euros of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
