  1. I agree with Yorke, but you cant compare the way they both left. That Everton game and saying he never wanted to play for the club again, completely different.
  2. The woman who he allegedly raped said she had a very positive experience when they first had sex, but then said he was very different when she said no
  3. My point is not his ability as a player he had a superb 18 months of premier league football, i just need more than that after watching 30 years of Villa playing. Its one of the reasons why i was upset Jack left, i never got to see the peak Jack as that was when the stadiums were closed, but still his fleeting peak might have been way higher, but others have just contributed more to Villa on the pitch and thats just a fact i think.
  4. This 100%, it winds me up when fans whos seen them both play put Jack in the team over Young. Their raw numbers are not even comparable.
  5. He would choose Watkins as we have other players that could fit Diaby's role easier. Diaby however is a better player. Another silly argument.
  6. He's nowhere near our best player in the past couple of decades. He has a great 18 months in the premier league, but that's nowhere near what Benteke, Ashley Young, barry or even milner did. You could debate most gifted sure but i just cant accept that at all. Could still change if he does come back however.
  7. Tbf its the difference between the positive and negative xg which is still an issue but certainly getting better.
  8. Hes done quite well to score 40 premier league goals in 3 years being "one of the worst finishers in the league". Hyperbole like this is just ridiculous as much as i agree with the end of the post.
  9. Honestly i think its why the top sportsmen deserve the money they earn. I cant comprehend what his mental health is. He's either very strong or more likely really affecting his career. But it makes me feel a bit backwards but its part of football. I cant say i haven't had a go at opperition players. But its not his fault he's still getting picked.
  10. If you think Ollie is streaky you didn't watch Deano.
  11. While i think the VAR explanation program is actually interesting insight, the biggest insight in got from the conversations is the fact that although referees know the laws of the game, i dont think they understand the game itself as much as they should.
  12. Kicking the can down the road and concentrating on getting reelected isn't just this terms issue its been an issue really since Thatcher if now longer.
  13. I think this is what the biggest issue is. I think he would have played the Everton/Burnley games but i think it would have been Mings and Konsa vs Newcastle and Liverpool. Weve seen the good and the bad, we are probably going to have to live with it for a few months unfortunately.
  14. I will say it quietly, but we didn't have the same issues when Dendonker played at home vs the 2 uniteds.
  15. Yet he's picked someone whos scored 6 goals in the last 12 months playing for the second best team in the country.

    We would have 11 players.
  17. What left side of the treatment room?
  18. I took a look at RedmenTV live stream to see what they said about the red card...they agreed it was a red when they saw van Djik go though Isak first, so a fan channel was less partisan than carragher.
  19. My knowledge of this lad is pretty low, but i can see im going to love him.

    Ezri Konsa

    One of the major reasons he wasn't picked for England was his ability on the ball. I understood that i could see that myself. But would always prefer a player who could defend rather than progress the ball. But his improvment on the ball under Emery has been so good. So good infact he has to be in contention looking at the centre halfs England has.
  21. The simple answer is him and Dan are really good friends i think and i think Gregg has helped Dan with opportunities. The only thing that annoys me is when they try and say they knew about something that happened but didn't mention it as a way to big Gregg up. If you dont mention it, dont act like you knew. It annoys me no end.
