  1. Pellegrini has screwed up again with his over adventurous approach.
  2. But what was Torre doing playing the back flick in the middle of the park. Lazy player.
  3. QPR were good against Liverpool, should have won really. It won't be a walkover for us.
  4. Harry claims he only lost the weight because he had tonsilitis
  5. Its not even 10 months its just over 8 is the minimum he has to serve.
  6. He has to serve 1/6 off his sentence in prison and if he meets certain conditions he can serve the rest of his sentence under house arrest, excluding what he gets for parole. The prosecution will almost certainly appeal the lightness of the sentence. The defence won't appeal for obvious reasons, I thought the judge was very thorough in the reasons behind the length of the sentence but can't help feeling that too much consideration was given to the vunerability of Pistorius and not enough consideration for the victim or her family. How vunerable is he. We are talking about a man who had the strength of will to come back from adversity and comepete against able bodied men in the Olympics.
  7. Yes he wouldn't have lasted under Doug.
  8. Yes probably should have won tonight but their defence and midfield are a problem. Don't know who are going to come 4th. Them or Liverpool prob.
  9. United have been crap. West Brom go above us if they win.
  10. I agree I think its time Sanchez starts and Richardson drops to the bench.
  11. I'd be happy if we had scored 6 goals this season.
  12. Our opening 8 games last season were fairly similar and we are currently doing worse. I have highlighted in bold those teams that people consider to be 'top' teams. Arsenal (Away) Chelsea (Away) Liverpool (Home) Newcastle United (Home) Norwich City (Away) Manchester City (Home) Hull City (Away) Tottenham Hotspur (Home) Yet compared to the actual corresponding fixtures from last season compared to this one we are 3 points better off. Is it me or out of those fixtures we have only played Man City (h), Newcastle (h) and Chelsea (a) so we are 2 points worse off
  13. Don't know what West Ham had available then, but to beat the best West Ham side in years is no mean achievement.
  14. 10 years older though! Barry was hugely talented when we signed him as a youngster from Brighton and he when he first broke into the side at 16/17 I thought wow this kid can play but I don't think he was that highly rated by villa fans when he first played in central midfield under Taylor. It wasn't until Oneill that we started seeing the best of him. Not sure Westwood will ever be as good but he has time.
  15. Both are wingers really, just that Albrighton is so much better.
  16. I think they will be found out against the better sides, but fair play to them, they have sold their best players and to be where they are is miraculous. Good management, playing the game the right way unlike what is served up by Villa.
  17. Last season Albrighton offered a lot more than what Richardson does.
  18. To be fair Mignolet kept Liverpool in the game today.
  19. and what the guy said is what most of us think anyway. No disrespect but Serena is stronger than most men.
  20. I don't want to judge him too much because he's just come back from a horrible injury. Like Benteke he's going to need time to get back to his best. Maybe he hasn't done it consistently over his whole career but at least he has the ability to do it which is more than can be said for most of our squad.
  21. Watching the Moyes interview we aren't the type of club he would choose anyway. Can't understand why we gave Lambert such a long-term contract after a couple of wins. Think we are stuck with him no matter what now.
