‘I was fuming’: Ollie Watkins slams PSG snub as Emery hails positive reaction
Watkins was furious to be dropped but used the anger as motivation to come back stronger
Ollie Watkins said he was ‘fuming’ to have been left out of the starting lineup in both legs of Aston Villa’s Champions League quarter-final tie against PSG.
Dropped in favour of Marcus Rashford, Watkins was limited to brief cameos in both legs. He played ten minutes at the Parc des Princes and 15 in the reverse fixture as the Villans crashed out of Europe, losing 5-4 on aggregate.
