  1. Anyone watched Patrick Roberts recently ... Very highly rated at Fulham and did well at Celtic ... Still only 23 and reportedly available for £3 mill ... Maybe it would make sense to sell Trez and poss replace him with Roberts. Thoughts...?
  2. He technically is until the summer when they have the right to make it permanent... as I said it’s a bs clickbait story ....
  3. BS clickbait story saying Trabzonspor are interested in him as a replacement for Sturridge ... Sorloth swop ? Also like the sound of Abdülkadir Ömür as a replacement for Grealish - The Turkish Messi ...
  4. Have my suspicions that Man Utd will offer Tuanzebe and Lingard Plus £ for Grealish but personally I’d prefer straight £££ and no casts offs... God I hope we stay up as we really need to add much needed balance and additional quality to the team.
  5. Konsa stats were comparable to Axel’s in pretty much every aspect and is more experienced. Difference is didn’t come from Man Utd. Che Adams won’t cut it in the prem and Webster cost almost x3 as much as Engels..
  6. Duje Ćaleta-Car is a defender in the mould of Vidic and better than what we have. Sanson would be a huge upgrade on Nakamba. Rashica is next level to AEG & Trezequet And Mateta is an upgrade on Wesley. Surely the priority is upgrading ? It’s nit about fancy foreign names it’s about better players ...
  7. Something must have been lost in translation or sensationalised as 25 mins without oxygen usually ends with extensive and permanent brain damage... Either way very glad he is on the mend but I hope I never see him in a Villa shirt again... Thanks but past it now, He has proven to be a liability and he isn’t even ours...
  8. This thread is pretty hilarious ... Reading heterosexual grown men argue over another 24 man is keeping me very entertained! It shows how bored some of you are and that some feel obliged to share and regurgitate their views hour after hour day after day if someone dare holds a different viewpoint. To me it also shows the media has created more fear in some than others (I’m not playing Down the severity of the situation btw)
  9. Postmen are Still out delivering junk mail, shop workers are still having to go to work to sell all manner of nine essential goods. Everyday hundreds and thousands of people are out and about ... The lock down was brought in to slow the pace of this so not to overwhelm the NHS. I’d also point out in a any given year regular flu can kill 500,000+ globally... I think some perspective about the dangers is required. At the frontline of the NHS it is awful I accept that completely and they deserve a better government. He will rightly be fined and warned about his behaviour. He went out and got caught and has faced consequences. That’s the end of it for me.
  10. See the usual faux OTT outrage and hyperbole has returned .... Too many snowflakes taking things a bit too personally is my opinion on the matter... Guy is douche has said sorry and will get the correct punishment deemed by the club .. End of the story and we move on . Some of this talk of jail, comparing the spread of covid-19 to murder and stripping him of the captaincy until all the facts are out is bemusing and also worrying to a degree...
  11. https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/aston-villa-club-masseur-alex-21747408 Get well soon big fella !
  12. Sanson, Rashica, Caleta-Car and Mateta would be the dream and add much needed Step up in quality... We just need to stay up and then fine tune the squad.

    The NSWE Board

    WIP self admittedly one year ahead of where they thought they’d be ... Appointed a Competent and reassuring CEO thus far. funded an complete Squad at a good age with great potential to grow. Pumped $$$ in to do so ... Not sure what’s to criticise ?
  14. I wonder if We could tempt Dan Ashworth from Brighton to replace him?
  15. What about players contracts which expire end of June ? What about FFP ? This is such a complex issue to resolve. Me thinks lawyers will be getting their bonuses this year ! I’d cancel the season now ... Liverpool Titles winners but with a * ... No teams relegated ... Top 2 of championship promoted ... then need to work out how to rebalance the league the following season back down to 20 teams .. Parachute payments to be distributed to struggling clubs in the EFL
  16. Someone Please tell me why JT would be a bad appointment? I’m leaning towards I’ll leave it to the professionals as I’m torn like a schizophrenic about Smith staying/going... Seen posters say no to Terry with no explanation ... He knows the squad and club, the board know him and his skills and he has played under world class managers... Flip side is he has no experience, is a bit of a prick, and who knows his role in our current misfortune...
  17. He Truly had a shocker no doubt about it and he needed subbing with Elmo pushed back to RB .... Wouldn't wrote him off yet as he has shown enough for me to persevere with ... Bar A couple of good individual performances the team has been collectively shite and that’s on Smith for me...
  18. Calling it now .. Vardy hat trick ... and Maddison/albrighton ... We’re getting torn to shreds ...
  19. Reina you absolute cockwomble and what the **** was Mings doing ..
  20. Badge is fine for me ... The the position of the star is my only gripe after a few years ago my old housemates drew on all the shirts I had with it on (about 5) in permanent marker a little line so it looked like the lion was holding a sparkler the Fookin barstewards ...
  21. I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt for now and see how he is after a season under his belt before writing him off completely... Its not looking good at present though he has to improve a hell of a lot to be a long term 1st team player. That said he appears to have the right attitude so ... Everyone wants instant results and performances yet some players take time to find their feet within this league and some are too quick to judge and write players off ...
  22. One of the reason we got relegated was because of Sherwood's calamitous pre season ( or lack off ) and his refusal to integrate the french players ... Garde was wrong choice at the wrong time in ... Chinks of light were appearing under Houllier. Bruce steadied the ship but wasn’t great and built **** all... RDM wasn’t here long enough to be fairly judged but it was a crap appointment by the fraudster... Lambert was found out as being a flash in the pan manager. The less said about McCleish the better what a disaster that was from the start...
  23. Always a personal fav of mine is villa park at sunset ... I would suggest checking out Etsy also as they have some fantastic prints on there... https://www.etsy.com/uk/market/aston_villa
