I would like Gyokeres , speed ,power , and a killer in front of goal , but arsenal nowadays don’t buy strikers top of the list , they get option C & D instead of A
We have no strikers. Havertz is a CAM or winger n Jesus is a winger. Martinelli, trossard are both wingers too. Club shuldve dealt with this 3seasons ago. Weve needed a striker for 5yrs
Offer 40m for Jonathan David nearly out of contract then buy a world class sticker in summer which is the plan and I think David would be a good back up and Havertz as a different kind of player.
@@annadavies8867no he's not he walks into our team we miss sitters weekly and Watkins last 3 years has a better ratio than anyone we have 65m is what we payed for Havertz he's alot more natural up top
@mrc5403 if a Spanish or Italian striker got 32 g/a in the PL for Aston Villa, he would have been sold for 80+ mil. Duran is getting bought for 80 mil and he's done absolutley nothing.
Honestly I just think arsenal have 0 intent on signing a striker but they know everyone is kicking them in the teeth for it. They know that Villa won’t sell Watkins with Duran leaving and with this they can now say “ well we tried”
A squad player? Who the hell in our squad would bench him please?! This is why half the footballing world is sick to death of our fanbase and the dumb things fans say.
Duran agrees deal for 77 plus add ons making it 90. Figure it out. Jeez. Ollie way more experience etc etc. this conversation is toast...with no butter. I hate dry toast.
Why would we sell ollie. To sell him and have us with panic in the final days of the window is ridiculous. Without ollie and Duran going to the land of the sandmen we have no striker. Stipid talk this is.
The one thing that people are missing out on this transfer window is that there are not many cheap options out there, so we need to sign players or else kiss goodbye to the league or Champions league. Ollie is a finisher playing with Ode and Saka he will score many goals WHY because Asernal have a better squad than Villa.
Arsenal fans are just cringe... The arrogance to think if its not what they want the club shouldn't sing anyone else. Imagine the same fans battering Havertz week in amd week out dont want to have Watkins.... Disgraceful fan base... M
Bar Isak who are these 30 goal a season players they expect to bring in? Watkins is on 20 G/A so far this season and was unlucky not to be POTS last year.
Why go in now when they dam well knew Saka & Jesus was injured fr way back this timing is ludicrous tbh...weve bin crying out for a striker fr 2yrs ago.
As an arsenal fan, i belive watkins woulf start every game upfront. The issue is his age. Paying 80 or 100m for a 29 year old striker is crazy, hes not kane level
I’m an Arsenal fan and I love our community and club but some of our fans are borderline delusional. In what world would Watkins who’s a die hard Arsenal fan and his family be a squad player? We’re being snobbish towards Watkins?! Lmao I’d rather have him at CF than Havertz.
I don't get the top teams in pl....they probably scout these players and then nothing happens! Why is that and then teams like villa/Newcastle etc buy these players then the top 4 teams in pl want these players ???
Watkins 30yrs is not worth even £20m. Arsenal and Arteta must not waste time and money to sign him. We have excellent young strikers butler odejeni and Max dowman benched better than haaland. Arteta need to just give them atleast 30 minutes of play
This is what makes me think that some people are brain dead. We are through to the next round of the champions league. We have a strong chance of getting to the quarter final at least, which is worth how much 🤔 Then add that to the chance of finishing top 4. How much is that worth 🤔 Plus after selling him, how much will it cost us to replace him 🤔 Unless someone is brain dead, why will we sell him for a loss. We don't care how much he is worth to Arsenal, if your bid doesn't at least cover the financial loss to us, it's stupid to think we will accept such a derisory bid. 🤷🏾♂️
So the player who achieved the most assists in the Premier League last season is going to be a squad player. Nonsense. That is beside scoring 19 goals. Fastest player to 100 goal involvements since De Bruyne. We'll keep him thanks.
Arsenal Fans are deluded, Watkins is a fantastic player. He doesn't just score goals he makes them also. That's why Arsenal are not going to win the Premiership again this year.
Watkins might end up like Solanke, so its no wonder they dont wanna take too big of a risk. Its not a given it will be a success, so if its not they can get some of it back. Not gonna get much more for him
These arsenal fans are funny Wait, which of your strikers is better than watkins? You are scrambing 4 a striker yet your condeming the 1 that you gonna get. Lmao Wat a joke
FFS Haaland was 52m on a buy clause,but then add that his dad Alfie was payed 20m on top and the agent who died was payed 25m aswell plus the 375k a week changes the whole debate,Nunez cost 64m Watkins is miles clear adds work rate, assists,goals for fun
I'd like Arsenal to sign a striker, but not just any striker. Watkins is a good player, but at 29 years old, is about 4 years too late. Arsenal's now feeling the pressure to sign a striker, but it's of their own making...
Never going to happen. Newcastle just posted their finances and they are in an incredibly good position going into the summer. One of the only clubs to turn over a profit. They purposly didn’t sign anyone past few windows to go big in the summer which will include isaks new contract
Where does everyone get the if we buy someone the cost gets spread over 5 years ? Been hearing that a lot recently , didn't know ALL transfers worked like that 🤔🤣
Watkins is another overrated English ave rāge player..These English guys are ruining football with their over priced ave rāge players and plastic clubs..Watkins is £25M at best.. I'm even being merciful
Ok so how do you he isn't worth more then mudryk fofana Antony Darwin Nunez Fernandez cAceido hojlund havertz.... I don't thinks it's English footballers that are overrated it's just footballers in general
The issue is he’s worth a lot more to Villa than other clubs. He gives villa a fairly consistent 20-30 goal involvements per year. Would he do that at Arsenal? It’s unclear how he would considering Arsenal’s set up.
100 goal contributions in 169 games and the Gooners don't want him. Entitled load of prices, let's hope they continue to win sweet FA. Only £600m+ spent my saviour Arteta🤣🤣
Why would playing with a 39 year old Ronaldo in a poor league be a bigger draw than playing in the biggest league in the world, under a top manager who will make him better? Ludicrous.
They need to go for Salaha, give him a top offer, rattle the liverpool cages. Worst case you force liverpool to give him a better deal🤣🤣🤣. Best case you get a world class stricker at the top of his game. Maybe on a free in 6 months. Better to go all in for 1 season anyways, mid season buys never work. Just panic buys with a arsenal ownership never willing to commit to winning, hense always just missing out. And they will keep doing so with this ownership, no matter the manager 🤣🤣🤣Poor arsenal supporters not going to win anything with these owners. 1 injury and the wheels are off. every season, its not rocket science.
After yesterday's performance, the words "killer, clinical, 25 goal a season" that Arsenal fans have been crying out for certainty didn't come to mind when watching Watkins
you mean the performance where he keeps scoring against us and cost us the league last season and a draw a couple of days ago with Villa. Come on bro, i'll rather have Watkins than Havertz up front for the rest of the season.
Comparing Watkins with Suarez 🤣🤣Arteta will be sacked for these bad signings!... still recovering from the last bad signing in D. Rice which he paid £115 million for 🙄
What a joke Villa and their fans are. They are happy to sell a young talented striker for 64 million to some Saudi outfit who were unheard of until last year but will not sell a 29yo reaching the end of his career to Arsenal for almost the same money just because they are rivals.. Either sell one and keep the other or sell both for the right sum of money and invest it properly.
Saying Watkins doesn’t get in the team is ludicrous but thinking he is worth 60mill shows how delusional and desperate some of us Arsenal fans are
Arteta and the club are talking about winning the CL and the PL and it won’t be with Ollie Watkins.
@denzz2778 not saying he wouldn't but I don't think he's the solution neither not at his age and money they would want
Watkins is a better striker than Jesus and Havertz put together.
Guy please !!!
Accurate!!
Not sure what you smoke mate. Watkins is worse than Nketia
Do you have special needs pal
After yesterday's performance I'm surprised they haven't pulled out the transfer process
I would like Gyokeres , speed ,power , and a killer in front of goal , but arsenal nowadays don’t buy strikers top of the list , they get option C & D instead of A
Funny that option A today will be considered option C in a year or two
@@El-Rattled a guy that would cost £70 million & is option A, is genuinely Gyokeres?! haha modern football is an absolute joke
I'm an Arsenal fan hes better than all our strikers (saka is a winger)
We have no strikers. Havertz is a CAM or winger n Jesus is a winger. Martinelli, trossard are both wingers too. Club shuldve dealt with this 3seasons ago. Weve needed a striker for 5yrs
Watkins is so much better then people give him credit for
Anyone who thinks watkins will be a sqaud player at Arsenal is an idiot😂😂
@jeremiahoboite9864 he'd probably end up being not right now but will will buy a better quality striker in summer
If havertz cost 65m...then watkins is worth more than that
Watkins is 29 haverts was 24 when arsenal signed him. it's not just what they're worth at the time it's the investment with haverts and resell value.
“ at 21 years old going to Saudi for money , we all know why he is going” ….Why do you think he came to England! For the money!
Havertz has more goals so far this season than Watkins…
What about the assists?
How many chances missed for both ?
Offer 40m for Jonathan David nearly out of contract then buy a world class sticker in summer which is the plan and I think David would be a good back up and Havertz as a different kind of player.
Could probably get him for less than 40m
I think anything over 65-70 million would be an overpay for him, interested to see if Arsenal go back in again.
60mil was overpayin for watkins. Hes worth 30-40mil at most
@@annadavies8867no he's not he walks into our team we miss sitters weekly and Watkins last 3 years has a better ratio than anyone we have 65m is what we payed for Havertz he's alot more natural up top
@@annadavies8867just sh*t up if you cannot think before u talk!!
Didn't they pay £90mil for Rice. And you think £60m is too much for a genuine match winner.. madness.
No problem, shut up about taking him then
wait u have havertz, jesus and sterling yet think watkins isn't an improvement?
Durans completed his medical,so Arsenals bid is irrelevant wont be seeing a second bid need to move on quickly as not a chance villa sell both
If you bid 70 or 75 why would they reject it?
Typical Arsenal fan arrogance, Watkins is better than Jesus and Havertz. I am LFC fan and I would have Watkins over Nunez
Not me me mate would love him at arsenal
Arsenal fans are so slow saying they don't want Watkins. He's miles clear of Havertz.
Who is not miles clear of Havertz? Most players are better than Havertz, just because he is better doesn’t mean that he is a good player.
he aint miles clear as a player tho and for £60 mil definitely not worth it, if he was Italian or Spanish he's 35 million 40 mil max
debatable
@mrc5403 if a Spanish or Italian striker got 32 g/a in the PL for Aston Villa, he would have been sold for 80+ mil. Duran is getting bought for 80 mil and he's done absolutley nothing.
@@mrc5403 he has 47 g/a in the PL since the start of last season. I would take him at Chelsea any day.
Malcolm Mcdonald scored 207 goals in 424 games of course Supermac was a world class player in his days Simon, Supermac was unreal man
Honestly I just think arsenal have 0 intent on signing a striker but they know everyone is kicking them in the teeth for it. They know that Villa won’t sell Watkins with Duran leaving and with this they can now say “ well we tried”
No evidence over the past 4 years to suggest that.
Exactly
A squad player? Who the hell in our squad would bench him please?! This is why half the footballing world is sick to death of our fanbase and the dumb things fans say.
I'll never pay 60million for Watkins,he's not even worth 30million
You got money like that 😅
Your clueless
Get his numbers, he is better than any Arsenal forwards
Duran agrees deal for 77 plus add ons making it 90. Figure it out. Jeez. Ollie way more experience etc etc. this conversation is toast...with no butter. I hate dry toast.
Is this the only profession where one is damned for looking for a better paid job? Such hypocrisy!!
Sir Elite Simon = Top LAD Proper Clobber 💯 Facts
Why would we sell ollie. To sell him and have us with panic in the final days of the window is ridiculous. Without ollie and Duran going to the land of the sandmen we have no striker. Stipid talk this is.
He is worth more than any forward at arsenal for damn sure
Hope Arsenal don't sign him. Not good enough. Certainly not worth 60million
Arsenal are a small club
You are literally a small club. As in an actual small club
Dude.... stop posting ur silly opinions😂😂😂 Arsenal is not a small club.
If we're a small club you're microscopic 😂
And your club is brought and paid for
Havertz has 14 goals this season, Ollie Watkins has 11. Great striker but the deal sucks. Rather get Vlahovic or Tel on loan.
PSR is curtailing Aston Villa's ambitions.
Pretty sure in the summer Simon said Arsenal need Watkins
The one thing that people are missing out on this transfer window is that there are not many cheap options out there, so we need to sign players or else kiss goodbye to the league or Champions league. Ollie is a finisher playing with Ode and Saka he will score many goals WHY because Asernal have a better squad than Villa.
Arsenal fans are just cringe... The arrogance to think if its not what they want the club shouldn't sing anyone else. Imagine the same fans battering Havertz week in amd week out dont want to have Watkins.... Disgraceful fan base... M
60 million for Watkins is too cheap 85 at least
Why dont they sign Marcus Thuram? Better than Watkins and younger
Watkins has Premier League experience
Bar Isak who are these 30 goal a season players they expect to bring in? Watkins is on 20 G/A so far this season and was unlucky not to be POTS last year.
Better off either: 1. Paying the extra 40m for Issak. 2. Buying Kudos from West Ham
Who has told you it is an extra 40m ??? . If only it was that simple
90 million extra
Extra £40M hahahahahaha
£40m 😂😂😂😂 a £100m wouldn't even make Newcastle pick up the phone man
They never made a £60m bid, get your facts right.
watkins more likely to go to spurs than arsenal
Yeah he'd swap the top half of the table and champs league for europa and bottom half good one.
£60m can buy both Jonathan David and Bradley barcola as wingers and use butler odejeni as a striker
This isn’t fifa mate
Why go in now when they dam well knew Saka & Jesus was injured fr way back this timing is ludicrous tbh...weve bin crying out for a striker fr 2yrs ago.
He was good at Exeter City but not worth 60 million. Not a world class striker.
As an arsenal fan, i belive watkins woulf start every game upfront. The issue is his age. Paying 80 or 100m for a 29 year old striker is crazy, hes not kane level
Yet 65m for Havertz@!? 90mil for a central midfielder Rice@! Obviously in this market, he's worth that.
That caller is not an Arsenal fan! If he was he would realise Watkins punishes us every time he plays against us
Being too much mean is the one making us being undermined bring victor gyekeres
Would rather wait and get isak in the summer or gyokeres
We don’t want Watkins bang average rather stick with havertz 💀😆🤣
I’m an Arsenal fan and I love our community and club but some of our fans are borderline delusional.
In what world would Watkins who’s a die hard Arsenal fan and his family be a squad player?
We’re being snobbish towards Watkins?! Lmao I’d rather have him at CF than Havertz.
That's why I want him he is a Gooner he will up his game with us for sure
I don't get the top teams in pl....they probably scout these players and then nothing happens! Why is that and then teams like villa/Newcastle etc buy these players then the top 4 teams in pl want these players ???
At this moment in time Watkins would be a starter! I believe he would up his game at arsenal.
Watkins 30yrs is not worth even £20m. Arsenal and Arteta must not waste time and money to sign him. We have excellent young strikers butler odejeni and Max dowman benched better than haaland. Arteta need to just give them atleast 30 minutes of play

Arsenal know they ain’t getting Watkins that bid is just to say to fans we tried to get a player but, same old Arsenal 😂
gets a goal every 2nd game, 19 in all 23/24 season, so he is worth the 60/65 million, he will improve the fire power for sure :)
These arsenal fans are funny
Wait, which of your strikers is better than watkins?
You are scrambing 4 a striker yet your condeming the 1 that you gonna get.
Lmao
Wat a joke
Arsenal better off trying to sign gyrokes or vlahovic and when liam delap gets snpped up he will be a beast hes wasted at ipswich
Grealish is the benchmark. £100M.
Watkins 100 Goals and assists in the Premier League.
That makes Watkins worth well over £100M. Facts! 👍😃🤪
Of course he would start for Arsenal 😂
Dude is 29.... Erling Haaland is 60mill... so watkins should be around 50mill.....
FFS Haaland was 52m on a buy clause,but then add that his dad Alfie was payed 20m on top and the agent who died was payed 25m aswell plus the 375k a week changes the whole debate,Nunez cost 64m Watkins is miles clear adds work rate, assists,goals for fun
This Simon guy he hates Arsenal he would hate us to get him
I'd like Arsenal to sign a striker, but not just any striker. Watkins is a good player, but at 29 years old, is about 4 years too late.
Arsenal's now feeling the pressure to sign a striker, but it's of their own making...
Not really. Rice was too big a player to miss out on and he cost 105 million!
Most creative player in the premier league last season and 4th top scorer.
He's arguably the best all round forward player.
Snobby arsenal fans making out Watkins isn’t good enough for them
Should sign jonathan david from Lille top striker in ligue 1. In last 5months of contract n young with UCL experience
He's Newcastle bound! Replace Wilson in the summer
Duran goes to Saudi for a half season and then moves to Newcastle in a cheap swap for Callum Wilson (watch this space)
How much did Havertz cost again? 😂
I feel arsenal are trying to force another clubs hand! Maybe sesko or Isaak.
Never going to happen. Newcastle just posted their finances and they are in an incredibly good position going into the summer. One of the only clubs to turn over a profit. They purposly didn’t sign anyone past few windows to go big in the summer which will include isaks new contract
I'll rather have Watkins than Kai Havertz upfront for the rest of the season.
Watkins is too old for Arsenal
Not good enough just arsenal should run from this business
Yeah ur right Arsenal, stick with Havertz, and that'll do u well
Where does everyone get the if we buy someone the cost gets spread over 5 years ? Been hearing that a lot recently , didn't know ALL transfers worked like that 🤔🤣

Don’t get involved in English football then, you’re always on here belly aching about something ffs!!
The top assister and 4th top scorer in the league last season? Hahaha

Is the money coming out of your pocket? Not sure why your getting your knickers in a twist
Every club has it's twits, and Arsenal are no different. Squad player? 🙄
Whats happened to Isak to arsenal 😂😂 finally clicked on he ain’t leaving the toon
Not good enough 😂😂😂
Another deluded arrogant Arsenal fan. Imagine my shock.
So much for the media hype of ISAK going to Arsenal every day 😂😂😂 Arsenal couldnt afford ISAK left boot 😂😂😂😂
Dangoooooo
100 goal contributions in 169 games and the Gooners don't want him. Entitled load of prices, let's hope they continue to win sweet FA. Only £600m+ spent my saviour Arteta🤣🤣
Prices = pricks
So salty 😂😂😂😂
Watkins is trash Dhuran 100x better
Dream on dreamers .UTV
Why would playing with a 39 year old Ronaldo in a poor league be a bigger draw than playing in the biggest league in the world, under a top manager who will make him better? Ludicrous.
Ching ching

It’s having high standards, Watkins might improve them but Arsenal need someone better
After yesterday's performance, the words "killer, clinical, 25 goal a season" that Arsenal fans have been crying out for certainty didn't come to mind when watching Watkins
you mean the performance where he keeps scoring against us and cost us the league last season and a draw a couple of days ago with Villa. Come on bro, i'll rather have Watkins than Havertz up front for the rest of the season.
Watkins was involved in everything yesterday scored aswell in a 4-2 win FFS
Comparing Watkins with Suarez 🤣🤣Arteta will be sacked for these bad signings!... still recovering from the last bad signing in D. Rice which he paid £115 million for 🙄
Rice isn't a bad signing you freak
Might wanna get clued up he cost 100m and 5 in adds ons... that we haven't even matched yet Caicedo cost 115m
Go get Suleman for 20 mill from Southampton. Add Calvert-Lewin for 50mil.
Haha just arsenal fans we need a striker no we don't need a striker 😂😂😂😂
I smell shite
