Alright fair but point still stands, he will earn a shitload more and play premier league football elsewhere.
I dont see how we get him to stay
The most important box he ticks is our f**cker.
No he isn’t.
You are just picking figures at the air, I don’t think there is any Premier club going to pay £60k a week for an unproven player at premier level.
He is happy here, he plays every week, I’m certain he will be offered a new improved deal. Every week he scored fans on here are trying to sell him. One day we probably will, but Robins says he’s going nowhere and intends to build a team round him, and there’s another point…we might be in the prem yet.

Gonna be a very interesting few months. Hyam the only person recently we haven’t got a proper fee for the rest is just whinging for whinging sake£20m would be a bargain, Coventry fans are too used to selling players on the cheap.
If we achieved the impossible, he’d be the only thing to stop us getting relegated.Absolutely agree, so many reasons to want him in your team, strength vision touch, he’s happy to hold the ball up or take it and run at them and more importantly he knows when to do what.
Still a relatively young young player as well.
I would imagine he’s ticking an awful lot of boxes in some quarters.
Tbh I think we may struggle to hold onto him ‘even if we achieved the impossible and got promoted.
Could be wrong but I would have thought Watkins wage has risen with clauses over the 3 years he has been at Villa. Milestone and England caps etc.Villa signed Watkins after only one good season in the championship for £28m and on £75k pw totally unproven in the premier League. Gyokeres will have 2 seasons where he has been one of the standout strikers and is already a full international.

Unless there was a huge investment in the squad alongside a complete overhaul of the wage structure, I don’t think even he could prevent us going back down.If we achieved the impossible, he’d be the only thing to stop us getting relegated.
We got 2m for him and he's really not that goodGonna be a very interesting few months. Hyam the only person recently we haven’t got a proper fee for the rest is just whinging for whinging sake
I do genuinely think the top clubs in Europe, even champions league clubs, should be looking at him, if only as a backupUnless there was a huge investment in the squad alongside a complete overhaul of the wage structure, I don’t think even he could prevent us going back down.
I honestly think people will be surprised at the calibre of club that will be after him
Nah not yet. It'll be mid to lower end Prem teams fighting it out for Vik. I could also see one of the data driven European feeder type teams that hoover up raw talent, polish them up and flip them to massive clubs.I do genuinely think the top clubs in Europe, even champions league clubs, should be looking at him, if only as a backup

Did I ? I did say look forward to a happy Christmas, bit out there it was a happy New Year.Your inside info also said Big Mike would own the club by now
Why couldn’t she end up with an English team even one playing at the CBS.A big factor will be his girlfriend
He might end up at Juventus or Roma.
Yeah I agree with all thatImproving all the time, could go to any club, they will see and be hearing what every championship manager is saying.
He did the right thing to stay here in the last window, he will have better choices in the summer and if his form continues, 20+ goals but add in the assists now which are rapidly increasing then that makes a very good bargain for any team. You don’t find many strikers who create the level of chances for others.
regardless of Watkins, Toney etc, a lot depends on a bidding war and how desperate a club is to need money versus where the player wants to play. There is so much money available it could be a crazy fee as much as it could also be something minuscule. Who would have thought what Wilson or Maddison could go for now from when we first sold.
Let’s make the play offs, win them and then keep him to ourselves, best option all round (we can dream a little and have a little hope)
Doesn’t she play for Juventus? Rome is around 750km from Piamonte - I can’t see Juventus being interested in him.A big factor will be his girlfriend

Priceless.Did I ? I did say look forward to a happy Christmas, bit out there it was a happy New Year.
Didn’t we get a reported £2.5m for him? That’s a proper fee isn’t it?Gonna be a very interesting few months. Hyam the only person recently we haven’t got a proper fee for the rest is just whinging for whinging sake
£1.4 wasn’t it? We needed cash there and then for the pitch?Didn’t we get a reported £2.5m for him? That’s a proper fee isn’t it?
The pitch cost was covered by a third party.£1.4 wasn’t it? We needed cash there and then for the pitch?

That’s not badIt was £2.2 m
It was £2.2 m
Don’t know where you got that from. £1.4 million all up front.
The accounts?
Not a bad fee for a dogshit player that no championship team would be interested in and was only worth 100k.
Stunning negotiation work from Dave Boddy I'm sure you'll agree.
