I would have endorsed anyone at the time with his profile at the time though, so it's hardly a good call. We were desperate for anything.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to celebrate rare back-to-back victories for Manchester United! They analyse the late win in the Europa League vs. Rangers and then try and find things to analyse in a pretty dour game vs. Fulham. They also chat about the latest Marcus Rashford news, and look at the latest transfer news.
True enough! I've liked what I've seen of him, and didn't realise he was so young.
No, because I had completely forgotten i made the thread & two, I despise the way this forum treats unknowns and then gets pissed at the club for not unearthing gems when other clubs take the risks in signing them and they turn out great.
Reminded me of Louis Saha in his style, with his agressivity on the ball and that left foot.
Let's see how he develops

It will get rejected and he ain't going anywhere atm. After his purple patch, he hasn't been all that great tbh. It's still very raw.
Jhaysus big money. He looks good but why would he move to West Ham?
Read they'd accept silly money - c. 85m.
He would probably hold out for PSG who are also interested but at least at West Ham he would be the guaranteed starter.
They should offer that for Hojlund instead.
True!
Why do they have big money to spend but we don’t?
When was the last time we sold academy player (Rice) for over 100m?

He’s an absolutely elite striking prospect. Villa would be idiots to sell.
West Ham will probably be told to promptly feck off and then comeback and offer the same money for Watkins instead.
And he'd be an idiot to go to West Ham.

True. There is nothing West Ham offer him that he can’t get in the very near future at Villa.
If he moves it should be to a top club.
Lets find out.
He’s hungry like a wolf
Haven't they spent like £300m since selling him? Which is a substantial increase over their previous seasons before selling him, at some point, that profit has gone.
But yeah, Utd spend like £200m every year without selling anyone really!
West Ham has been a graveyard for strikers as much as we have.
They manage their books better?
They live rent free.
Make half that offer for Rashford instead, we'd snap their hands off.
He’s a wild boy
They can’t afford his wages unfortunately.
Villas PSR is pants I heard… he’s young but that’s a lot to turn down, £40m+ profit
They almost got him for £35m in the summer. They haven’t given up.
Could he tempt them with Zirkzee for £30m or Hojlund for £50m?
Could he tempt them with Zirkzee for £30m or Hojlund for £50m?
In London there’d be more opportunities to see Girls on film
True and some girls who in an ordinary world might tell him I don't want your love may change their minds cause he's a footballer.
Especially after he mentions Rio
If you say his last name twice you get the band Duran Duran
At that price we shd be in for him
We can’t afford £5,700 nevermind £57 million.
Surely he's not going to the Saudi league at 21 and arguably the best up-and-coming striker in the PL?
It makes a ton of sense for Villa. Sell Watkins for huge money and keep a brilliant young player.
Duran potentially going to Saudi is fecking sad. What a waste of talent.
They could get more than 60m for Watkins. He’s worth more than that to arsenal just for the fact he can’t score against them anymore.
Money talks unfortunately. Says the type of person he is if he does. Money before ambitions
They’d be stupid to sell him to a rival and at this stage of the season, with less than a week to replace him. If Arsenal are serious they should go back in for him in the summer
