  1. Yeah, he came back at the end of the season then came on against city for a few minutes when we got battered three or four nil.
  2. Keeping it to positive thoughts only. I think we'll score. That's all I've got.
  3. When Jack was the age that that Carney is now he hadn't even made is debut for Villa. The following season plenty were saying he was still learning and needed to add to the defensive side of his game. Welcome to the goldfish bowl...
  4. At 18 Emi Buendia was playing in the third division of Spain's semi-pro leagues. Coutinho was yoyo-ing between the 2nd and top tier of Brazilian football with Vasco da Gama. Neither were exactly tearing it up on the big stage. Could be a great player but has a long way to go. Loan him to a Championship or L1 team next year.
  5. Will be interesting to see how much they rotate. They have some big games coming up.
  6. If we can entice him out of retirement, I feel like Botman and Robben would link up well.
  7. I don’t want to sound like this is taking anything away from the lad at all. Two well taken goals. Made up for him. That said I really want to take the piss out of that defender for the second one. I’ve seen cargo ships in the Suez turn quicker. Was he running through treacle or something?
  8. This thread is starting to remind me of a Lord of The Rings book review that gives the trilogy only three stars because "the lack of past participles in the goblin language is unrealistic".
  9. Barry at least made the bench - which is a step up from his last loan.
  10. Am I misunderstanding the stat because that doesn't sound impressive at all?
  11. From the interview he seems like a really positive and likeable guy. Just wish he'd slipped in a "Football Is Life".
  12. Not according to Swindon's manager but who knows. “The conversations that we’ve had are that they’ve taken Kaine back to see where he’s at, it’s not a case of taking him back and loaning him elsewhere." -Ben Garner They think it's possible that we'll take a look, and might send him back to Swindon if he's not ready.
  13. If we get four years out of him, that's more than we can say for any of our squad from four years ago. Jed Steer is the only one left. Four years is a very long time in football.
  14. Spending $25m to bring in a proven and experienced player to compete with a 26 year-old who only has one great season of PL football makes sense. That's what we did with Danny Ings. Glad to see us follow the same idea here.
  15. Cant help but think that if there's one player who'll benefit from an in-form Coutinho, it's Danny Ings.
  16. Wondered why my Nan went in for a hip replacement and came out with a Brazilian.
  17. Was mentioned in the BBC article on PC too. They don't usually drop names for no reason.
  18. Sky from Paw Patrol probably. The English one and the American one. I'm just watching.
  19. Stocky looking DM? Sign him up.
  20. Us fading Coutinho and signing Rashica for 142 million instead would be a poetic bookend...
  21. Checking to see who gets the pleasure of @Eamescompany in the centre circle.
  22. Your first post could apply to Danny Ings as much as PC. Originally my point was a bit of banter.
  23. A story in two posts. From the Danny Ings thread.
