  1. His odds have just plumeted from 25 - to 6/1 - ominous ? excuse my ignorance - but who the f*ck is he ? LOL, he is a **** legend. Took a poor Dortmund to the top in Germany and also took the team to a Champions League final. He also took Bayern back to winning the league and brought them to the CL final against United. I think he is a better name than Jol.
  2. Seeing the general's last rants, I think they are in the dark.
  3. I like what I see. Looks very football intelligent and makes some great choices.
  4. Also credit to Petrov for finding Young with a nice pass.
  5. Thank you for still coming here and answering our concerns. Yes, Randy Lerner has spent the amount of money that was needed for a top 6-8 finish. And that is good. But it is the spending the next four years that will decide our future. Currently, it looks like Lerner is not too keen to keep the spending at what can be described as a modest spending. That is a concern to many of us.
  6. Terrible performance. But nothing has changed since last week, so no point in shouting crisis.
  7. Coventry and Wednesday are the teams I remember he had.
  8. What the hell? This is European football. Not the Premier League, where teams win away quite often. It was an excellent result.
  9. Heskey did very fine linking up with Albrighton and thus played a part in the first goal. Not good in second half, though. But gotta laugh at those who wanted Delfouneso up front on his own. Everyone forgot his display against Benfica?
  10. It really bugs me, seeing people before kick off being so angry with the team we play and saying and during the match after they scored 1-1: And yet we manage a good away result, thus achieving a lot better than this person have been expected. Then you should expect some happiness. No **** way. Then it is:
  11. Draw away is a very good result, guys. This is Europe, not the Premier League, where teams win away all the time.
  12. Yes, we need a goal and we have a striker who can't score playing away from home. Makes perfect sense. I think you miss the point. We have a result. We need someone who can hold the ball a bit and play it to a team mate, like he did when Albrighton crossed for our goal.
  13. I really don't understand the shouts for taking Heskey off. He is one of the players we need out there now.
  14. Nice linkup by Heskey and Albrighton and a great start with the Bannan goal.
  15. Can see a draw here. WIll be very happy with a win.
  16. Good to see Heskey on the pitch instead of an inexperienced teenager.
  17. they will say one thing to the media, if it suits them. Well, reading Carew's interview, it was obvious that he had a special relationship with O'Neill (though he has always, as we know, been one of O'Neill's favourites, so that may be why). Not according to a lot of people on here. Every transfer window people were saying Carew would be sold because O'Neill hated him. Yeah, they are the people that Carew labeled "some rumor makers at the Internet" after the fall out rumor in the days after our season opener last year-
  18. they will say one thing to the media, if it suits them. Well, reading Carew's interview, it was obvious that he had a special relationship with O'Neill (though he has always, as we know, been one of O'Neill's favourites, so that may be why). As he said when asked why they had such a great relationship: He also said that players who were not playing, but felt they should be playing, would not mind a new manager, but he had never gotten any champagne text messages and suggested to take what the papers said with a pinch of salt. BTW, good post from OP.
  19. Turn it around then. What's Albrighton's reward for being MOTM in every pre-season game. I suppose we could ask the PL if they'll let us field 12 players. Bahhhh I'd rather award Albrighton by bringing him on for 2nd half or for the last 30 minutes. Wasn't that Albrighton's reward last season's opening match against Wigan? At least almost, since he entered the field in the 68th minute.
  20. Okay, the initial shock, disappointment and fear (remember, we have been treated quite badly by our previous owner), I'll ask another question: What level is the right level for our wages?
  21. Any reasons why you suddenly started bigging up youth players like Lowry, Parrish, Weimann and Lichaj just two days before MON goes after what is reported to be a rift between him and the owner regarding money to spend? Are you preparing us for a future where the seniors who cost quite a bit in salaries are replaced with young and cheap players?
  22. General. I have faith that Mr. Lerner knows how expensive this is gonna be. Show us the money.
  23. Think there will be no new manager from outside. Kevin MacDonald. I fear that Lerner and Krulak believes the youths are better than they actually are, and that they think Mac Donald can achieve top 10 finishes with balanced books. Remember this quote from Krulak:
  24. I'm at work now, so I don't have access to the link which is on my home pc, but there is a forum where a lot of matches is available for download. I have actually downloaded quite a few Villa matches there, that I have forgot to tape from my PVR TV decoder.
  25. Since I don't watch the reserves, I have barely seen him. Not that I think he will be a big star, nor get a breakthrough at this level, but I think the focus rather should be to get rid of expensive players like Sidwell than a Togolesian player who actually seems to be able to pass the ball.
