Ollie Hits the Mark on Debut

Arch-Villan Dan Bardell and The Athletic's Gregg Evans look back at a great week for Ollie Watkins who scored on his England debut against San Marino. It's reasonable to look at that moment as the vindication of a move to focus on domestic signings. This came after a less successful spell recruiting in the Belgian market, which Gregg has been writing about this week. With Jack Grealish and Tyrone Mings already involved, and the likes of Ezri Konsa an outside shout, there could be plenty of interest for Villa fans come the European Championships.
