Ollie Watkins

[Scratchins]

One of the angles looking through the goal in line with the shot was exactly my view of his goal at Arsenal.

So pleased for him. Always comes across a genuinely nice bloke. Works his nuts off and sometimes in life you get what you deserve.

He had made a few of those runs before the goal. Kane was nowhere near as mobile.
I thought he should have come on for Kane around the 70 min' mark, but what do i know?

I think Kane will still start on Sunday, with our Ollie as an impact sub' again.

Really happy for Watkins, he has had a great season.

That's just put his price tag in excess of £100m - and he isn't going anywhere. To us, he is priceless.

Just enjoy the moment FFS, if there's anything more boring than the rumours it's people saying "standby for the rumours"

Bit unfair.  Tim's got stuff loads more boring than that in his oeuvre.

Great finish, incredible.... but.....if that was against us I'd be killing the defender for not holding the line and him going offside.

Watkins life has now changed forever, that goal will be shown for the next 20 years at the start of every Euro's involving England - he has gone from the back pages to the front page of every national newspaper.

For the Watkins goal see the Platt goal from Italia 90.

Lets hope that Ollie gets another opportunity to play on Sunday.

Only if they win it on Sunday I think.

It a tough decision. First when Ollie was onside if the pass was made then Watkins would have been through unchallenged, then when he was playing him onside you still had the potential pass to Saka from Palmer which would have also put Watkins into a good position if he then crossed to him once he was on again.

He's been doing that for passed few years,getting shots away from tricky positions and getting goals. He prob won't start on Sun but he should be. Cue transfer rumours from Monday...

It's hard to think of a more typical Ollie Watkins goal isn't it?

At least a few of the "experts" have conceded "he's been doing that for the last two seasons for Villa..."

Ollie’s game has come on leaps and bounds since the Tories have gone.

Believe Roy Keane said that straight away

[PeterWithe]

To be honest I thought, for the first time in the tournament, that Kane coming into midfield and wide actually worked as there was lots of room for Bellingham, Foden and even Mainoo to receive the ball on the half turn in the 'no10' position, if we had Bellingham in last seasons form rather than looking fucked, we could have won at a canter.

One other thing about Ollie’s celebration we almost got the full Marco Tardelli but I assume he’s saving that for the final.
