In what world could you ever describe Australia as “progressive”?

A highly developed nation, complex and mature economy, healthcare and social policies that are mostly citizen centric, a highly educated workforce, centralised pension plans. I mean, I can go on, it is objectively a progressive nation irrespective of routinely electing the likes of Scott Morrison and Gladys Berejiklian.

Interesting watch and take this from Ornstein. Speaks about Gerrard's tenure and prospective Managers etc 

Neville: " Why would Pochettino go to Villa, he'll go to a top 6 club."

Ornstein: " Villas owners are as ambitious as any of those clubs, and I think Pochettino would certainly not discredit them for the right project. "

Carragher * was just filling blanks as you can imagine.

The livings so many pundits steal is revolting.

My 2 cents - a good away draw is a good away point, regardless of Leicester's position. They, like ourselves are objectively below the expected points tally and league position. 

If Bournemouth, Forrest and Fulham were in the bottom 3 and we faced Leicester with a better total, but with both teams mired in uncertainty, the draw would still give us 1 solitary point. It would still be a good point gained.

Getting a result is important, as is the display but it's all relative. Leicester should be much higher up.

Green is home win, red away and orange the draw. Home advantage slips over time but still exceeds away wins. Is there really an argument against getting a point away?

I love him and he has loads of credit in the bank, but he bottles it at Arsenal everytime. 

Still a legend and glad we have him. 

Credit in the bank 100%. He'll have a blinder against Haaland, the other 10 though ... We live in hope.

This may seem like semantics but - hiring a head coach is far more appealing than a manager. This is what you get when you hire a certain type of manager - no tactics, no plan, no clue. We become beholden to the back room team.

A few years ago we were looking down our noses at Palace, S'hampton, Newcastle and the likes. Man do they look like they have a plan now. Even crazy S'hampton look like they've got a clear idea of what they want out of their squad, transfers and tactics. We're so scattershot.

Probably not responsible for 18 goals if he got a red in one match. Wasn't it at 0-0 as well?

Emily Dickinson opined that "Hope is the thing with feathers", regrettably I cannot give you the same kind of guarantees.

He got sent off after 86 mins @ Old Trafford.
 

I wonder, is Purslow's head turned with the Villa Park project? In theory it's not a bad thing, all things commercial should be in his purview but this football club has fundamental issues on the pitch.

If we were purring along it would make great sense. Top test for a player of his profile. Now we can see how he would have been played under Beale.

I said recently, they no nothing more than is on Twitter. No one important will speak to these in combatants.

Now if they sent Meliisa Reddy, I'm sure she would get the info

 

Send . 

She has some one on payroll @ Liverpool. 

Out of curiosity I took a look, sure enough he played in both 9 nils for S'hampton. 18 goals shipped and 1 red card!

Getting rid of Doug and replacing him with Gallagher would be madness.

It's getting rid of Doug and replacing him with a younger McGinn.

 

It's like the Jack and the Beanstalk story!

Today feels like our rivals are shopping on Amazon and we're down Iceland with Kerry Katona trying to get a deal on sausage rolls.

Sohlkhel is the worst.

But can only get a sentence out a minute. Why oh why do these transfer experts talk so slowly that it seems they have been medicated

Apologies for returning to the same well but - why do they hold pens like they're on the verge of completing a crossword?

Most of them don't even know what one is, let alone fashion the ability to complete it.



They're literally holding pens without anything to write upon ....

Soccer Saturday aside, SSN treats its viewers like the braindead dipshits they know they are. It's just a well packaged Daily Heil/S*n/Mirror/rag

We haven't seen anything yet.

Just wait until SG is gone and we enter our own Ozil saga with Coutinho. Madness prevails.

Unless I've  been labouring  under some terrible misapprehension all these years, that's  a corner flag. Though  I can see how it could be  confusing... maybe Savo was misunderstood 

I've been caught red handed.

Just sack him, no statement!

It's time for one of these posts from the club.

Credit where it's due, Gerrard was effusive in his suggestion that Aston Villa wouldn't serve as a stepping stone to him managing Liverpool.

He has stayed true to his word.

At this points I'd even go with this inanimate Rod

Almost unlimited energy and very volatile but it does work well under pressure.

Thought he did reasonably well given he was covering for Ezri so often. I wouldn't question his application or professionalism for a second, especially in the face of such treatment by his bluffer of a manager.
