  1. Actually a really nice goal from Citeh. Can't fault anyone there - Rodri a little lucky with a fortunate bounce from the challenge.
  2. Unfortunately, Luiz needs to come off. Can't afford a 2nd yellow and with the amount of defending we are doing it seems inevitable.
  3. .... this is going to hurt, isn't it. In the few minutes I have watched: Diego can't do a simple clearance Irog turns it over under little pressure Olsen kicks the ball to no-one Zaniolo can't make a 5 metre pass Rodri scores
  4. Well... that was comfortable. Great result 3 things I learned: Moreno probably needs a spell. Digne is well in front, imo. I usually count the amount of times Zaniolo retains possession on 1 hand. Today was the opposite. Good signs. That was probably the tamest "derby" I can remember. We were supremely comfortable despite their early possession.
  5. Southgate to ManUre? When we finish above them this season.... ... it's going to be fun seeing the gap widen the next!
  6. A bit off topic but: I'm unaware of any meetups, sadly. Perhaps any other posters from Sydney can help there. One thing I do know: Getting to a pub to watch Villa in the conference final will be difficult. Firstly, it's waaaay low on the radar here as far as sport goes. You'd more likely see a repeat of an NRL game from the previous weekend. Secondly, if it's played at a similar time as our games against Ajax - that's 7am down here. Most places aren't even open yet.
  7. Mings has "gone viral" down here, apparently. In his recent upload of his workout, there were 2 NRL jersey's on the wall (for Manly - traditionally the club everyone loves to hate - and one for Newcastle).... ... but here is what the mainstream media had to say down here (emphasis mine): .... I am so ashamed to be an Aussie They got it right by the end of the article, mind. Full article here (not worth reading): https://www.news.com.au/sport/football/fans-lose-it-at-aussie-detail-in-premier-league-stars-viral-video/news-story/8bd2c441a2a4e393c00742990fe6a194
  8. ... our ref against Wham _was_ from overseas.
  9. Good point away and a decent performance all things considered. 3 things I learned: Duran is a talent, but he's not a starter. Yet. Zaniolo does have something to his game. ....Maybe. There's credit cards, PayPal, cheques and ApplePay - but Konsa is not a suitable substitute for Cash.
  10. Gillet will give this. Since when do you ask a ref to check handball?
  11. Of all the possible people it could fall to in the box.... Konsa.
  12. Konsa starting to annoy me with his dithering on the ball
  13. Thought we started well, but after 20 minutes the back 5 (including Martinez) have been inventing ways to turn over possession casually/lazily/stupidly. The shining example being Konsa's appalling "free kick" to Lenglet. It was only 2 more passages of play and they scored.
  14. Duran: I score, or the keeper sacrifices an arm trying to stop me.
  15. MannsVerk. Yellow early in the first leg then consistent fouling thereafter - gets away with it. Karma. See ya.
  16. In a match with a card happy ref.... ... not sure Duran will see out the last 60 minutes
  17. Imagine looking good at half time then conceding 4 in the second half. I mean, who does that?
  18. Luton have a nice away shirt. That is all.
  19. Then that is just crazy. I assumed it was a "tax" based on income, which would see Citeh and ManUre slugged with larger amounts compared to your Luton's and Burnleys. After all, we hand out income/rewards based on league position, so you can't evenly tax if you don't evenly distribute wealth. I'm glad we refused.
  20. But it's not just Aston Villa paying the clubs below us, right? We all pay an amount, I'm assuming based on something like income or league position. So the argument of having the most money to compete seems null and void - it "weakens" everybody else in the same way.
