  1. See from around 1:20 onwards regarding what Jack says about the club's ambitions.

    Good stuff. Looking forward to hearing it. Like the logo too. Just a point on the logo - it looks like the lion section is the same colour as the claret circle, but with opacity dropped so you can see the checkerboard pattern through it. That looks a little strange? Would straight white work better for the lion?
  3. Gareth Southgate has a "Live, Laugh, Love" poster in his bedroom.

    Patagonia

    Patagonia is a truly beautiful region with awe-inspiring sights in all directions. Spent as much time as we could spare on both the Argentinian and Chilean sides. It was interesting to see the contrast of mood in countries - we were in El Calafate when the Argentinian election results were coming through, and it was a celebration of honking car horns and signing and dancing around the town and in the bars that evening, after the new President's speech. While we ended up only transiting through Santiago Airport, the other parts of Chile seemed OK in terms of safety, however there was definitely a tension in the air. In La Paz, we had to stay in our hotel due to the political unrest in Bolivia, and would hear sirens, shouting and what sounded like gun-shots going off in other parts of the city. Had to scramble to get a flight out of there after our planned bus to Uyuni was cancelled without warning. Again, the rest of the country seemed OK in terms of security. We did hear stories from other travellers that had to barricade themselves in their hostel as windows were smashed during the protests though - that sounded scary.
  5. First full match of the Champions League that I'm able to watch (only seen highlights of the previous games) but the intensity, speed of thought and skill level of these players is on a completely different level to what I'm used to seeing with Villa. It's like they're playing a different sport.
  6. Getting Tour de France vibes from the yellow one. And I feel like the purple one could give someone an epileptic fit when watching Saint-Maximin in full flight.

    This is really interesting. Thanks for the link
  8. Was this article written by @sir_gary_cahill? Focusing on his looks... Only joking SGC
  9. I know Jack was part of the Team of the Season (along with Hernandez) but didn't Pukki win Player of the Season?
  10. Heading into work on the train, and watching the game on my phone. Startled the lady standing next to me when I gave a muffled yell which I tried to turn into a cough, when the Konsa/Mings goal went in.
  11. Apart from our goal, that was my favourite part of the game.
  12. It could be possible that we enquired about both Reina and Piatek, as that would fit our M.O. from the previous transfer window. In Piatek we have a young player, new to the league and country, who may or may not know English. In Reina, you have a player with experience of both living in England and playing in the PL. The fact that both are currently teammates at Milan could help with Piatek settling into life in England. Whether either deal is still likely... only the clubs know.
  13. Absolutely spot on! Also when Cutler came in last season and was giving his first interview to the club, he spoke a lot about the mental side of the game and helping players with that - I'm sure he's definitely helped Nyland in that regard too.
  14. I'm sure it'll help him to have his family around him (especially his kids).
  15. Exactly what kind of doctor are you?
