  1. If you personally don't like Everton fair enough, however they as a fanbase were quite empathetic during that relegation season. In fact they were the only away fans that clapped us when we sang 'we want our villa back'.
  2. Just read on the athletic that they are trying to add a year 1 buy back into archers contract, wonder if this is similar to ramseys? Thought these buy backs had a minimum of 2 or 3 years? If we can buy him back after a year it's essentially a ffp friendly loan.
  3. Touché Just to add to my point I'm not talking about rotation of the whole squad for the game, just rotation of good players to get some game time in their legs. The likes of Tielemans, Diego and zaniolo should all be starting.
  4. There's a reason stevenge is used in these arguments...because they are so rare. There's also a big difference between that tie in that it's 2 legs.
  5. What he would have to do for them to turn their backs on him makes you shudder!
  6. If the Saudis have taken the moral high ground there's only 1 place left for him to go......
  7. We could win this game with the 2nd team. Madness to expect no rotation with 4 games in 2 weeks and stellar luck with injuries.
  8. It was a reference to the 4 people that carried little Phil for about 20 minutes around the pitch after he was hurt
  9. Sitting on the Dock of the bay
  10. If we let these players stagnate keeping them around for a few fleeting appearances then why will the next generation choose us over another academy? 99% won't make it with us but if we can get them a future in the game then it's good for everyone.
  11. Congratulations to Duran for his first goal for the club!
  12. Why can't we have regular stretchers like other clubs?
  13. Digne cash and Bailey....i worry thay is playing into dyches hands. Where is the aerial presence at the back?
  14. I know winning is important but I'm not sure if a 5-4 will do much for defensive confidence.
  15. No 1 objective today is a clean sheet.
  16. I think my favourite description of this guys main strengths so far is his 'tractor engine left foot'!
  17. They have dcl back by most reports. He will make a difference to their attack.
  18. I wouldn't go anywhere near them if I were Johnson. I would imagine a lot of chelseas kids would love to be playing regularly for a prem side.
  19. As an extra plus our injured 5 a side team looks better and better!

    This is what happens when the rules are allowed to be bent with no real repercussions. Cought....citeh...cough
  21. Galatasaray are very savvy putting the 2m acl tax on this!
  22. Now I've had the night to think this over I think the fault came from us not pressing high enough at the top, vital to the way you have to play with a high line. I think emis absence played a massive part as did replacing him with Bailey, who simply did not put any pressure on the opposition defence. The problems simply spiraled from there.
  23. You are right, far more likely the whole team had a mare for no reason.
