The former Brentford man has now scored 10+ goals in all four of his seasons in the top-flight. He\u2019s the first English player to achieve this in their first four seasons since Robbie Fowler (1993-94 to 1996-97) and Alan Shearer (first five from 1992-93 to 1996-97).<\/p>\n<p>Villa captain John McGinn has hailed Watkins&#8217; achievement in hitting the 50-mark for the club and backed him to reach a century in the coming years; a feat that would see him overtake Gabby Agbonlahor (74 goals) as Villa&#8217;s record Premier League goalscorer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He\u2019s obviously a striker and he does so much for the team but like any of them, he\u2019s got eyes on the goals. It\u2019s an amazing achievement &#8211; one I\u2019ll never hit &#8211; hopefully, he can get to 100 very soon. I\u2019m chuffed for him,&#8221; said McGinn.<\/p>\n<p>\u200c\u201cThe way he works and his attitude, I think he\u2019ll be playing at the top level for the next six or seven years at least. I\u2019m sure he\u2019ll get there and hopefully, I\u2019ll still be able to watch him do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2 class=\"article-page__title\"><a href=\"\/en\/go\/betmgm-sportsbook?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BetMGM<\/a> sign-up offer: Get \u00a340 in bonuses when you bet \u00a310<\/h2>\r\n<p><strong>Not signed up to BetMGM yet?
