  1. This is nonsense. Next people will be saying how slow he is. He's gone from fans favourite, "future elite fullback" with people worried he'll get poached by PSG to a bottler who can't tackle or pass in less than three weeks. It's like people have never come across concepts like form or confidence before.
  2. On a lighter note, the combination of kit colours would really have annoyed me on Pro Evo on the PS2. They'd all be blocky white blobs so picking out those runs would be tricky on the eyes. Remember when Man U had that grey 3rd kit that they said blended in to the crowd so they couldn't see each other? Either way, we're getting battered so far.
  3. Just came in to post this more than two years later. That own goal is worth watching again.
  4. Now I'm really hoping you're one of the people who's been shitting on Wes....
  5. A bit of light-hearted fun... hopefully. You can sign one former or current Prem player in Jan. Transfer fee and wages are irrelevant. Only rules are: 1. They have to have played in the Prem at some point. 2. We get them at their peak Prem ability level, so if you pick Piqué, you get Man U Piqué. Given the squad we have and how we play, who would you sign to take us further up the league?
  6. Looks like the guy who played RoboCop*. Has the engine of a man who's half robot. Tackles like his prime directive is to **** you up. Love him. *(Shit remake circa 2014)
  7. I didn't think it's rocket science - he's knackered. That was 180 mins of international football over the break - he'll still run himself into the ground for us, but he's only human. Tired legs leading to him either being indecisive or shooting because he's about to collapse. Either keep him as an impact sub for the next game, or be prepared to sub at 60 mins.
  8. Bosnich will always be king of the white line for me.
  9. It says something when a player who scored a great goal and got a great assist still can't get MOTM in a team with Jack in it. He was a level above tonight.
  10. No offense, but that's like saying Trez can finish. I like them both but this is stretching reality.
  11. Wes put himself about all night so that SJM could shoot wide about fifty times when it was 2 on 2, or 3 on 3 and should have released it. But yeah, let's shit on the lone striker who spent the whole game putting himself about and making space for runners from midfield. Seriously guys - there are plenty of sticks to beat Wes with, but last night wasn't one of them.
  12. I'd like to see someone with a bit of Prem experience come in and put their arm around Wesley. I think he's got the attributes, I just don't think he's quite adapted to the league just yet. Jermain Defoe is banging them in
  13. I only turned it on for a few seconds to check for MaVilla, but I'm pretty sure my ears winced...
  14. I can get audio on the Villa app under "AVTV". I used to have a subscription but don't any more and it still works.
  15. Back to the topic of the game... Lansbury pass was class but having seen it from every possible angle during half time, their left back was caught in no man's land for the goal. Would like to see us get to the byline more second half.
  16. I just assumed this was sarcasm.
  17. Has he got a brother called Mical?
  18. To be fair you wouldn't have to think too hard to find a few examples of us doing the same in recent years...
  19. The Norwich marking is absolute jumpers for goalposts.
  20. Worked for the first half today. Ironically he looked knackered by 60 mins.
  21. I'm going Davis for MOTM, purely because it'd be nice for him to get one. On we go and another goal from Jack in the cup. Hourihane making another solid case for a starting spot on Saturday.
  22. I thought we looked like a new side that lacked cohesion and understanding, but that will come. I wish we'd get to the byline more often. Aside from that, reasonable performance and about what I'd expect in this first season.
  23. I must be watching a different game. I thought they were both full of energy / industry and looked like our most likely sources of danger. An entertaining game for the neutral, which I know isn't a priority but it's a far cry from our last run in the Premier League.
  24. True story, this happened during the Palace game. Then Kevin Friend knocked on the door and booked her for simulation.
