I don't see Hughes and Co buying a 28yr old Watkins, decent player as he is.

Shit. He looks about 21. 🙁

It shocked me when I saw how old he was. I thought he was 24.

Yeah bit of a late bloomer, there are a few options around, but the Prem based ones will be premium, as per. Isak is doing well, but he'll end up somewhere where they are prepared to pay top whack in the face of FFP rules.

The summer will obviously tell us but I genuinely think FFP (both EPL and UEFA) are really biting now. No more silly purchases and lots of home grown players being 'farmed' across multiple feeder clubs to support spending

It was an inept team performance and awful second half tactics! Where was the passing game? Just aimless long balls and most possession was at the back of our half, squares balls and short passing with the keeper! No real chance was created in the second half. Salah missed many chances! Some of the players looked totally drained. The manager is out of his depth right now, and must focus on the most important game and that is at Fulham, the players should regard it as a cup game and a must win game. We just for the players to get good rest and be fresh for Sunday's game. Good Luck 🙏

I can't find fault with his punctuation, but the wording in that last sentence lets him down a bit ... when you search for, and find, an appropriate emoji, it is then important to insert it in the appropriate position.
