  1. I must be watching a different game. They look dangerous going forward and we look beyond clueless.
  2. i'd be tempted to take whelan off already - looking awful and making lots of errors
  3. The 2 CL semis show we cant take anything for granted in the 2nd leg. I'm bricking it!
  4. Anyone heard if the big man will be fit for the 1st leg?
  5. Think we need to score at least 2 and not concede in the 1st leg to go through. Anything less, and we will struggle
  6. How much hame time has he had in the 6 months prior to those 8 appearances? Not much i'd wager. Strikers, all players really, need a run of hames to get match fit. There are few strikers in the world than can not play for months at a time, and instantly start banging them in. Hogan will never be that good, but played regularly, he will score goals. I can't recall him playing more than a few concurrent games since his arrival - often due to injury. I think judging him on his time here is harsh. He's not great, he might not even be good, but at this level, given games, he is capable.
  7. So you're ok with cheating because it meets your view off the world, regardless of what the rules say? Can't imagine why people call Leeds fans dirty cheats then...
  8. What you're suggesting is entirely different to what happened. At no point, from any angle, were el ghazis arms raised to even remotely close to bamfords face. Even from the replay behind the goal and the very far panned out angle, it is plainly clear his arms were not raised. Hard to hit someone in the face when your arm is level with their ribcage.
  9. It means he is better at avoiding being kicked - which he is.
  10. And for this reason, even had clubs voted in favour of doing so, it wouldn't be possible as it breaches UK trading regulations with respect of healthy competition.
  11. According to whoscored.com he has the best average rating in the country. Missed those games through injury as we played so poorly might have saved his stats
  12. Chuffed to bits with 10 in a row and very proud of all the lads involved! However, our wastefulness is a real concern, and i hope it does not come down to missed chances for the playoff final...
  13. Itd be disappointing if his season is over, but i would be comfotable enough in the knowledge that davis can come in and do a decent job and others can pick up goals. Not too worried
  14. Tbf you're right. 10k though, and i think i'd be happy as he has a very positive impact on the squad
  15. Yes, but we are talking league games, so 10 will be a new record if we can win it. Something poetic about a villa fan managing his own team and breaking the clubs longest winning streak...
  16. Half his wage, for a 1 year deal and get him doing his coaching badges. Bring in a dm to start leaving gw as backup. Job done.
  17. Read the regs handbook again, and be very precise when looking at the language. It effectively says its only a free kick for handball if there is intent in the referees opinion, so by default, if he gives a free for handball, he's also saying he believes there was intent and therefore has to book the player. Just to be clear, i'm not saying i agree with the rules, but in this incident, the rules were correctly applied.
  18. Funny, i thought you were talking about whether Mings should have been booked... He lashed out after not getting a free kick he, and I, felt he deserved - definite yellow. The ball does strike his arm, and were the same happen in their box, i would expect a penalty. Unfortunately, the rules state that a handball is a yellow card - so both fair yellows and fully justified and in accordance with the rules. Take off the claret specs, and objectively, its 2 yellows. Can't appeal, as you can only appeal straight reds. I have no complaints with those 2 decision - plenty of others - but not those 2.
  19. I hope when the full tome whistle blows i get to eat my doubting words. But not yet, there is still a long time left
  20. Pile of poo. I thought more of DS than this, but the team were woefully unprepared for this. Can see it being 2 or 3 nil by the end. Wheels well and truly off
