Wow, that was a tremedous goal. The rest of the half was rubbish, and this was the bit we missed. Damn.
-
Where was Taylor there???
-
Better Davis

Sigh. Let's pretend we know what's going on.... nice ball Jack!

He's not been great. Always the safe ball, even when he's in the last third.
-
Yeah, watch El Ghazi look 75% better when Targett comes on.
-
Once again, does anyone know where Wes is? not on the bench?
-
Think aside from the end product El Ghazi has been pretty decent. Also he made a cross a while ago that Davis should have buried.
-
I think Davis has been really poor so far, not bringing in our wide men much. not really threatening. Where is Wes???
-
Thank cripes we've got Douggie to come in, cos there's a hole in front of our back 4 the size of Wales.

Man city are unplayable most of the time, true, but if we play canny we might just nick the odd point off the other big boys, and that will be the difference between survival and relegation.
-
We won’t dominate possession or high press the top sides, they’ll kill us if we try. We’ll need someone who can win and control the ball and then set off the counter. Which Douglas can.
-
You are right in that he’s not good enough for us now, but it’s unfair to imply he was disloyal. He was the best player by a country mile in a rubbish side for 3 years and for 3 years he almost single-handedly kept us up, while our management did not hold up their responsibility to build on those achievements and appropriately strengthen. He stayed at least 1 year more than was good for his career. At least. As it panned out his subsequent choices have been disastrous, but you can’t deny that he was epic for us, and always gave his best here. If Douglas, Wes or whoever does the same, it would be fine by me.

Agreed. Inside forwards. The decision to get defensive full backs is starting to make sense now, as we’ll be narrow and vulnerable to wide counters.
-
Ahem, bringing this down a notch. I was looking at a heat map this morning of Wes while at Brugge, he appears to play much much deeper than Tammy, and with back to goal more. Didn't see the Minnesota match, but I was thinking that with Jota, Grealish and El Ghazi, he could make a false nine sort of role work. His goal rate would suffer a bit, but I think we have some potent weapons in midfield and on the flanks.
-
Does that squad count include Hogan?
-
We still need an actual breathing DM in the team. Not sure why things have stalled there, it’s the crucial position for me. Hope to christ Douglas is in the bag. It’s concerning both with this transfer as it was with Phillips that a lack of progress might signal that things are not getting over the line. If we start the season with Thor there, things will get ugly real fast. Conor even more so. I wonder if DS sees either Engels or Hause as being able to do a job there? We have a few ballplaying CBs now.

Cool. I get the click bait stuff. Nebulous unverifiable comments like ‘we’re considering a bid for’ or ‘villa are turning to so and so’, but reporting an actual event that didn’t happen like a meeting, could they not get done by the pcc for that? That’s demonstrably false.
-
Thanks man, you have made me feel a bit better.
-
The Mirror are reporting that we’ve been in talks with Sturridge. That is quite a specific statement for clickbait. That would be a massive mis-step in an otherwise quality window for me. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near the first team.
-
It was all pretty believable until you said ‘special segment on motd’. They’ve always hated villa, they’d put us on bbc2 when everyone else is on bbc1 if they could.
