  1. You're comparing Jack going to a team we are absolutely not competing with, who are on a completely different level to us, to a soldier who was serving for Ukraine to instead fight for Russia? This might be the most bat shit crazy thread on VT. And that is some achievement.
  2. This is his first "lost" season. But there are mitigating factors. Jack, Deano and others. If next season is as rubbish as this, he might be in trouble next summer. (He also appointed Deano and got us promoted one year early, FYI).
  3. Went to around 10 home games. Didn't really enjoy them. Even the wins were laced with poor performances. Suffice to say, I'm really glad the season is over - there is so much work to be done if the the walk is to match the talk.
  4. Hahahahaha, oh Villa. It's the hope that kills you.
  5. Wonder what wage he'll be on. Highest earner, surely?
  6. As I was typing my "game is gone" post you stole my thunder!
  7. Mbappe staying at PSG. According to the eminently reliable Balague he's getting a £150,000,000 signing on fee and £26,000,000 a year. But, of course, FFP will deal with this. Right?
  8. You've written much more succinctly what I tried to convey. Essentially, why are people so angry at something they have no control over and has no impact on them? UTV.
  9. He's one season into what I think is a six year contract. He'll get so much better as he becomes more suited to their system. He's more likely to win a Ballon D'or than he is to be binned off by Citeh, in my opinion. He was brilliant for us, he got us £100,000,000 and (I think) we will (eventually) be better without him. Also, Buendia could be as good, again, my opinion. I just don't understand the vitriol he receives. Its **** crazy.
  10. Come back onto the pitch to give them a guard of honour? No chance. Those Villa players will be on the first flight out of MAN to Dubai!
  11. We either need to buy a new striker and sell one of the two we have or decide between Ings and Watkins and enable them to play in a settled side, in a settled position. Changing it up all the time isn't helping their consistency and I would imagine contributing to a complete inability to regularly take chances.
  12. This nails it for me. (And that solitary point was against a United side that both Brighton and Watford spanked).
  13. "Steven Gerrard: “I think we are further ahead here (at Villa) than we were at Rangers. But it does take time, it takes windows, it’s a patient process. It is not just going to change overnight...” #avfc" All he **** talks about is transfer windows and buying players. Never coaching players to be better or finding a system that more suits our players and their strengths. He's really starting to get on my tits.
  14. This absolutely will happen. Regarding genuine concerns, I have genuine concers it could reach double figures. We are epically shit and they will absolutely destroy us.
  15. I'm worried for next season. I'm not worried about relegation, but apathy towards another boring mid-table bleurgh fest is real. Also, if that happens, the 24,000 person season ticket waiting list will evaporate, fast. If that standard of football stays the same, it's been dire for a while now, that will impact on optimism too.
