Player description

A left sided central defender, Robert joined Fulham’s Academy as a schoolboy. Though he originally came to the Club as a left winger, he was converted to a defender early on after Fulham’s coaching staff spotted his natural defensive abilities.

Watkins is a good reader of the game and plays with a style reminiscent of former Fulham Captain, Andy Melville.

“He’s not a flash player but he does his job with the minimum of fuss,” said Fulham’s reserve team manager, Paul Nevin. “You’ll rarely see him have a bad game so in that respect he’s a very dependable player. Technically he’s very good, he can play nice short passes but he’s also capable of playing accurate longer balls.”
