It was a pretty good start actually. Some of the passing was great, albeit rusty in parts. Final ball wasn’t too hot, but I think that comes with competitiveness and more games.
I think our strongest 11 may actually cause a lot of the ‘top 6’ a few issues this year. We were very comfortable against an okay Leeds team.
Leeds will struggle with that blunt forward line this year, but what was noticeable was our strength in depth relative to theirs
Personally I really like the idea of the borderless badge, like your one on the right.
I understand the clamour for the round badge, but I want something that looks forward not the club looking backwards
Traore is a pure entertainer. I always thought he was as equally likely to do something genuinely world class as he was to do something Sunday league. That West Brom goal is strangely one of my favourite ever Villa goals. To pass it into the net at that pace was audacious.
The next Pele. (I hope)
in all seriousness, I wonder how much we have spent on academy prospects since NWSE came in. I seem to recall we spent ~£750k on Chrisene from Exeter city. So would not surprise me if it’s around the £10mil mark.
Good luck to the man, a very knowledgable and forward thinking guy by all accounts.
if this doesn’t prove that the Birmingham Mail is a rag tag clueless, click bait, wannabe journalism bunch of idiots, I don’t know what will.
