Purslo win?

I like it.

We need new players. They are tired and the back ups are total wank 

Anything less than a win would be deeply anger inducing. Threatening to go into collapse mode. Not beating the shittest team in the league and the nature of that **** collapse against that **** team again. Anything but a win is unacceptable if we are not to pass away our great start. Can see the wheels fall off if we lose here

Which back ups are total wank?

One of his biggest fans here.....but his performances are lightweight, right now.

He's just back from a significant injury.

The short termism from Villa fans blows my **** mind. 

If it were Football Manager, I'd send him on a two week holiday. He need to rest and come back refreshed for the second half of the season.

Let’s see where we are at the end of the season. Right now, we are in a champions league spot. It’s ours to throw away at the moment. If we fail to qualify at the end of the season, are we saying it is mentally weak or not? 

We have over achieved to be where we are. 

Common sense would dictate we're a top six / seven club going through a phase of evolution and incremental improvements.

So, no. Were we to finish sixth now, we're not "mentally weak". We would probably be where we should be and then would use the summer to analyse, improve and progress again.

True, but, ' Atairos' are going to be making a big investment in Aston Villa's infastructure and V Sports, which is usually big news with Premier League clubs.

Is it usually big news? Can you give any examples? I can't recall ever seeing something like this being bf news.

As demonstrated with the Atairos deal… nobody has batted an eyelid! 

Atarios own not 1% of Villa.

Crossing is what Sheff Utd wanted us to do

And it's now we scored our goal.

Do we really want a Champions League spot, as we haven't go the squad for lots of games. We will just do a Newcastle and be downbeat.

Can't believe those **** Tory bastards cancelled next summer's Transfer Window.

Oh, wait...

You're arguing the toss against someone who thought we were going doing in February-March last season, don't bother  

Appreciated. Didn't know this. Consider me out. (I'm mentally weak, can't handle the pressure).

Just now, Tayls said:

Oh ok because we haven’t been ‘successful’ for the past 20 years then we shouldn’t expect to go top of the league against the side that are bottom. Fine ok. Might as well just lose then. 

The top sides win games. If we want to be a top team we need to be beating the sides that are holding up the rest of pack. Comfortably. I saw nothing there half which suggested we would go for the jugular. We just tapped the ball about a lot. 

"Mentally weak" were your words. We are expected to win this, of course. However, if we don't, we're not "mentally weak".

Are Man City mentally weak for drawing at home to Palace?

This is exactly how I suspected this game would go. Sheffield would park the bus, we'd fail to break them down and it ends 0-0. Simply not good enough. 

Got NO chance of being top four if you can't break down teams like Sheffield United. 

The overreaction here is biblical. 

This will never, ever happen. 

The Premier League wouldn't allow it.

German cultural expectancies would never allow it. 

Atletico Madrid and Seville have already ruled themselves out.

Who exactly is competing in this league?

Yes. Better facilities, better location, more money for Villa better image for Villa and the city of Birmingham. 

I'm surprised someone with the username of Pongo Waring would be so quick to dismiss the history and heritage of Villa Park for a quick buck and "to better the image of Birmingham", something that is of no consequence to Villa. 

Each to their own.

Yeah same. Move it away from Aston. Lichfield or near the NEC

New Villa Park 

Serious?

Seriously WTF?!!!

This will never happen

We won't host the euros. Why are we doing this? The North stand is a dated embarrassment, it has to be replaced if we are to compete with the top teams.

Bad, bad, bad decision. My worries started when we paused it this year. Heck has been a total diaster since he has come in.

How many millions have we already spent on the applications, consultants etc?

When Purslow left I got concerned it was his project. I never thought the owners were 100% committed to it.

On a scale of 1-100, 100 being maximum, one being minimum, how much of an impact do you think a redeveloped North Stand will have on "competing with the top teams"?

I like it. More of that please.

I still can’t help but feel we struggled when they had 11 players though. Even though we are winning I’m still disappointed (kinda)!

@Tayls, you're a sadist.

The brains behind Gerrard thing always baffled me. 

So far as I could see there were no brains behind Gerrard. Where did people form this opinion from? 

Gerrard said it himself. 

Quote

“It would take me 15 to 20 years to become as good as Michael Beale as an on-pitch coach, delivering sessions on a daily basis, so I let Mick be Mick Beale because he’s the expert.”

Another thing the clueless prick was wrong about.

Biggest game of the season Sunday.

Season ends Sunday.

That's the only mentality we need.

Elaborate please.

For those much more aware of te Finance world than I, this reads as very exciting with little / no risk, am I right?
