Some Aston Villa fans on social media have been raving over the performance of Ollie Watkins against Arsenal.

The striker scored the only goal of the game, but once again his performance was about more than just goals.

Indeed, Watkins seemed to cover every blade of grass at Villa Park, and his workrate didn’t go unnoticed by supporters online, with Villa fans coming out in their droves to praise him for the effort he’s put in.

This match represented yet another game where Watkins scored against one of the traditional ‘big six’ clubs, having scored a hat trick against Liverpool earlier this season and a brace against Arsenal in the reverse fixture.

Mikel Arteta must be sick of the sight of Watkins after the trouble he has caused his team this season, but Villa fans have been absolutely loving it.
