    He does bring all those attributes you mention.....however, and the same goes for the other players you've mentioned, if this team is to go onto another level under Emery..... which he'll demand by the way, then we will need either the players to bring more to the table or bring in players that do. That's just a cold hard fact.

    That's all it is. I think as fans we also need to be realistic in the long term... Not just possibly about McGinn but potentially other players that are fan favourites in the squad. The team/squad if we eventually want to get closer to the top of the table and be in the CL on a regular basis that's going to require a few upgrades across the board over the next 2-3 years.

    Only because he's the current captain.

    No I didn't think he was great on Sunday and certainly not on the level of Teilemans or Rodgers in midfield. Lost the ball in dangerous areas a couple of times, gets smothered trying to dribble or turn out in tight areas and his passing hasn't been great either. He's had great games this season, and a fans favourite but I don't think he's been playing well at all recently. It's just my opinion

    Are we sure it wasn't the CEO of Villa is a Coke fan? The Colombian kind. That may explain a few of the decisions since he arrived.

    Great character and has had some great games this season but, I think he's been in pretty poor form since he came back from the ban.

    His first couple of games I thought he might take a very long time to adapt to the pace and possibly struggle with the step up. I was wrong by a long way, I think he's a gem and it might seem a little harsh but I struggle to see Ramsey getting back into the side if Rodgers keeps improving at the rate he is. IMO he's got a seriously high ceiling having the size and strength that Jacob lacks and his passing range also appears more decisive. It's early days but he's looking like some player

    Thank f*** social media wasn''t around in 1982 with the amount of bedwetting there was in the match thread, because we got virtually dominated in that game too. We were very poor for most the game tonight but the way that posters, "fans" turn on the players in times of adversity is horrendous.

    He was fantastic today. Strong, quick and kept us on the front foot second half continually running at the Arsenal backline. I gave Carlos the MOTM but Zaniolo deserved it too imo. Shocking the hate he gets on this forum tbh. Some of the comments in the match thread were embarrassing.

    Give is a rest ffs, he's played well. The hate the kid gets borders on the ridiculous
  11. avfc1982am
    Agreed.. I'm seeing it the same tbh. All 4 have played really well.
  12. avfc1982am
    Not a bad half tbf. Rodgers, Zaniolo and Carlos have looked very good. Emi immense. A few of the others need to liven up but all things considered pretty good.

    I think with City going back top Arsenal could start to panic now, and it puts far more pressure on them to get a result against us tomorrow. IMO that could leave them forcing the game rather than playing their natural game, leaving themselves open to the counter. Arteta will now be wondering whether to stick or twist now with Bayern on Weds giving them no time to really recover. We've got a decent record at the Emirates too, not brilliant but not bad either, it's definitely a place we can win or grind a result at. We need to go all out tomorrow and look to get something from the game.

    I'd be very happy getting into the Europa for next season and proving that we can rep in the league and Europe at the same time. It elevates us above many of the other teams struggling to be competitive in both compo's and raises the level of the current squad. Brighton and Newcastle have both struggled massively trying to do what we are currently doing. Yes the CL would be great but just being in Europe is fantastic in itself. Anyway it's not over with a lot more football left to play. WH could win the return against Leverkusen and get coefficient points, Liverpool could beat Atlanta and do the same. Then Arsenal could, if they're on their game beat Bayern and Athletico could come away from Dortmund with at least a draw. Man City may also beat Madrid. If all that happens the picture looks a lot different and brighter. We could also leave Lille next Thursday after booking a place in the Semis. There is plenty to be optimistic about.

    I never understand why people just come into a thread to slaughter players for no reason. Your just a div tbh, its a shame we can't free transfer you over to the SHA forums.
