  1. Dominated without creating much. I'm really not sold on Ash playing as a number 10
  2. Its funny, I hadn't ever noticed Kompany in that photo until today. No idea how I missed him!
  3. I thought they could change tyres under red flag conditions?
  4. No chance he should have saved it in my eyes. He cannot see the ball because Targett is in the way, Targett misses the header about 8 yards out, which doesn't give Emi enough time to get across to it. Yes he should have saved the Rice one, but I don't think that means there is a weakness there.
  5. Im sure i read a quote from Gerrard about young after the game at the weekend which said something along the lines of "he was brilliant but we have to remember how much football we have in December and be aware how much his body can cope with". I took that as Gerrard saying Young can't cope with playing a Saturday then a Wednesday

    They are just as bad as Crypto, people seem to think that because there is no travel, no physical materials etc that they don't do any damage to the environment, however that just not the case. While people are trying to clean them up, its just not there yet. For example; Source for the quote here

    because of the really bad eco impact they have, I can't justify getting into these
  8. Gutted I didn't get any of my picks in the main ballot. Tried the triathlon, swimming, the diving and cycling road race and got nothing - I thought I had a decent chance with those ones
  9. this is where I am at with him, he has surprised me at how good his work off the ball and his link up play is.
  10. I wonder though, if Hause didn't necessarily have a main role in the set pieces as he isn't a guaranteed starter where as Mings is? I.e Hause is doing what role Axel would usually fulfil who isn't as good in the air as Hause.
  11. Took me bloody ages to get through that book!
  12. Martinez Cash Konsa Mings Targett Luiz McGinn Buendia Ings Bailey Watkins That would probably be the shape and side i would go for against most teams. Having watched Ings now, it seems he likes to work hard and drop slightly deeper anyway, so would make the ideal 10. Buendia played his best football for Norwich on the right I believe so this would suit him, and we've already seen what Bailey can do on the left. Its just nice having options to be honest.
  13. I've just got this feeling that Deano is going to win the FA Cup for us and finally end our long wait.
  14. Just playing devils advocate here, but maybe he is a landscaper - it's the last week of grass cutting and hedge trimming. Maybe he is worried about not being able to earn a living this week? I mean he might just be a word removed, but he also might not be?
  15. we cannot blame the HGV driver shortage on Brexit, otherwise Poland wouldn't be 124K drivers short (which is more than our 76K), Germay between 45K & 60K and Europe as a whole at 400K short - Brexit is not that far reaching. My figures have come from research done by Transport Intelligence and reported in Cold Chain news (a magazine for the temperature controlled logistics industry)
  16. I mean if they are all as good as Bailey appears to be, then I'm all for it!
  17. I agree, I think we changed formation when Bert came on too
  18. I think Dougie's best position is as box to box midfielder like how he played on Sat once Marv came on. He just seems so much more comfortable there
  19. I don't understand this. Why should the club be looking into the requirements of what Emi needs to do/have done for something which is happening while away with his county? All we need to care about is what happens when he returns surely? This is the responsibility of the AFA to look into, not Villa.
  20. The Italians have had almost 80% possession and 27 shots and they are still going to draw!
  21. Do we know when the draw for the next round is? Also is it still split north & south?
  22. I can't hear anything else now you've mentioned it!
  23. I cannot believe its week 2 and I've already forgotten to do a round of predictions Predictions for this week are sorted already just to make sure lol!
