  1. There hasn't been continuity from the last manager to this one. Gerrard's system doesn't utilise wingers, we spent £30,000,000 on Bailey last summer. That on top of the money spent on Traore the summer before. Were your point to be correct, the manager we hired after Deano would play something similar to the 4-2-3-1 system which in some fashion fits last summers signings. As others have said though, our recent transfer success has been mixed, at best. Alex Berwick on Twitter articulates this really well.
  2. Its been an absolute shit show from Watford on opening day onwards. The malaise with the international call ups, formation **** ups, trying to shoe horn Ings and Watkins into the same team, constant injuries, terrible home form, managerial change, I could go on. I've not really enjoyed the season and am very much looking forward to a fresh Aston Villa in August.
  3. I'm going to go one stop further and just pretend the game isn't happening. It could, and probably will be, an absolute blood bath.
  4. Does McGinn start in a midfield for a team who wants to finish top eight? (I don't think he does).
  5. He isn't responsible for us being in the league. He played a part. As did many others. And, I said one of the worst. So he would be in good company with Messrs Bowery, Beye and Balaban. (Loving your alliteration).
  6. Or, maybe, just maybe, we have different opinions and my eyes work just fine. Its possible.

    The NSWE Board

    Or TNS. The Welsh giants Total Network Solutions? Renowned big spenders!
  8. Let it go man. It's not healthy. He's moved on, we've moved on, all is good.
  9. Purely from the eye test, he's one of the worst players I've seen in a Villa shirt. But, the goals? I can't explain them. He's an enigma for sure.
  10. Bah. If the award meant that much to him I think I'd have got his name on my shirt next year!
  11. Overturning it would have made the title race more alive.
  12. I know, I know. I didn't see the previous pages until after I'd posted and at that point it was too late. Always happy to provide extra clarification for you though my friend.
  13. Also... http://www.benfrancis.com. Second paragraph in the About Ben Francis section.
  14. Leeds go down... ... we go for Phillips?
  15. Patrick Vieria rarely looked like he was busting a gut on the football pitch. I'd take him in the #6 role now, never mind in his pomp!
  16. Don't they just hate it when facts get in the way of complete bullshit?
  17. Does this mean you enjoyed the refs performance and would like a celebration?
  18. The basic. The **** basics. Both goals we conceded were our fault, basic errors. Ings missing two absolute sitters, basic errors. Can sign all the players we like, if we can't do the basics, we're forever ****. It's so frustrating.
