  1. I think he may become a better player than Albrighton. I don't think Green is as one dimensional. And I still like Albrighton - good to see him doing well.
  2. If we do not get promoted this season, I think we will have to stay with it for a considerable while.
  3. We have heard this sort of thing before, and there is never any perceptible difference. I think all new heads of the scouting network say this when they come in. A laudable ambition, however, and I await the result with barely concealed excitement.
  4. The problem with a number of players who have performed well for previous clubs is that after all this time Bruce has still not settled on a team. How can they `gel' if the personnel around them keep changing.
  5. If you are bringing on a big centre back as a last minute sub and putting him up front to save the game, you will obviously have all balls being lumped up to him.
  6. The club has not wasted money on Hogan. The manager has wasted the money in not being able to properly utilise Hogan's talents.
  7. I agree. But he waits so long to react that he can barely be described as a reactive manager. A major part of his problem, I think.
  8. Of course. That would be ideal. But waiting may not be a possibility.
  9. I have been supporting Aston Villa since 1956 and I will want him gone if he cannot turn things around very soon I do not necessarily think that sacking a manager will cure everything - it has not this far - but I certainly know when it becomes non viable to retain a failing manager.
  10. Yes. Xia will know that he cannot wait for too long if he wants to get promoted. He now has the experience of last season to guide him.
  11. Sorry, VLV. Just a little jocular add-on - doesn't really mean anything. Apologies if you felt it did.
  12. I hope you are right and I will be very pleased to be wrong.
  13. Disagree totally with this. As fans we have put up with an awful lot of shit and our expectations are, in my opinion, very low. Problem is - Bruce has not even achieved that level of expectation.
  14. Well, I would hope that we would all want to get promoted, and if I thought that we would get promoted playing the shit we played second half yesterday, I would not say a word. Not likely to happen though, Jareth, is it?
  15. Don't think he will get that many, Eastie, unless he changes things very quickly.
  16. Or: Left wing Inside left Centre forward Inside right Right wing Left half Centre half Right half Left back Right back Goalkeeper No substitutes or reserves No extra time
  17. Lose an (alleged) number 10. Loan out the player most suited for that role. Are they really that stupid?
  18. Thought that immediately I read it. And Grealish missed most of pre season.
  19. Bunn is out of contract, I think. Should be let go, I think, I have never been impressed by him. The lad Sarkic could be number 3.
