  1. well that was confusing and distressing. thought this was a new topic, started reading from page one, and found a conversation about how Villa were setting up to be in the championship long term . and everyone was happy enough with it
  2. new season of All or Nothing just dropped. Philadelphia Eagles. 3 eps in and its as good as always. The in-game footage is so immersive. I love for some scoring plays how they stay zoomed in on a certain player and follows their reaction, and then shows the TV angle after
  3. Just to play devils advocate, Utd mightn't be anything special at this moment in time but Jack grew up, like many of us, watching them dominate football in this country an fostering generational talents that are written into PL legacy. They still have massive worldwide appeal and just maybe Jack realises that if he were to join them and help them regain their spot as one of the best teams in the country he would be a hero. This may be more appealing than joining a team at their peak and perhaps trying to replace an older, successful player. For the record, I hope I am wrong. i also believe that people can justify their actions and decisions to suit their agenda and Jack could (perhaps not incorrectly) tell himself that by Villa selling him for a massive fee (higher than the club itself was valued at a few years ago), he is actually helping the club he loves long term. Again, I hope I am wrong. The other thing that concerns me is the lack of stability at the club the entire time he has been a senior player. It has been a revolving door of owners, managers, CEO's training staff etc so there hasn't been one consistent figurehead that Jack would feel massive loyalty towards.
  4. the Todd Philips documentary about Allin was one of the craziest things i've ever watched.
  5. I tried that and I still just see a bloody dog
  6. Just having a laugh bud, please don't take it to heart. Need to have thick skin around here lol. Back on topic, I completely disagree with your points above but respect your right to express them, and however you want.
  7. cant unsee it now! painting ruined
  8. Hilarious. I didn't know I was writing a **** essay which was going to be marked. C-
  9. I'm alright with this as a risk free signing. Best case scenario we never see him play because it means that samatta and Davis are playing great and avoiding injury/ fatigue Plus it means if (when) we stay up then next summer we will have even more money to spend on an awesome striker rather that being lumbered with a mid value so-so striker
  10. You can tell that that Jarrod Bowen fella is gonna be one fat wee bar steward once he retires from football
  11. We do. We just aren't allowed to spend it
  12. Sure we can just buy Bowen back off West ham.in 6 months when they get relegated and we stay up. Simple
  13. Never a good look to have a captain who can't get in the team imho. Best to part ways and make jack full club captain. Heck make him CEO while we're at it if it makes him stay forever
  14. I'd be happy with Sturridge. He's a quality player
  15. it is a bit small time and looks absolutely terrifying to be a player in the middle of it. However, I would think that a part of the FA realises that it shows a passion and validates the league cup as a competition. It has been maligned in the past with some people calling it a mickey mouse cup or whatever and questioning its importance.. Personally I will only call it a mickey mouse cup if we get beat in the final
  16. He is doing fine defensively. I just think the team needs to organise it so that he is not the player trying to start attacks from the left back position, because his passing and decision making is pretty poor. I would rather see the ball being worked to our central midfield to try to break the lines - watching Hause try to link play down the left just isn't ideal
  17. and here was me giving all the credit to the players and coaching staff. Great job Mike
  18. That was a big cheer for what was, in reality, a fairly straightforward kiss
  19. Yay. I was gutted for the guy when the commentator said he would miss the final. Especially because the lino had got it working. Also I bloody hate the idea of 2 yellow cards keeping a player out of the final. That's just horrible
  20. I do feel he is still playing within himself at the moment and there is even more to him than he is showing. But gradually he is improving and showing more of that Brazilian swagger. Big fan here
  21. He really bloody worries me when he stretches for the ball, especially when he does that thing when he uses the wrong foot. Please stay fit and healthy Tyrone. We need you!
  22. As good as he played against Watford, are we sure Reina would have made those four saves tonight?
