Add Anthony into that. Not only is he a shit footballer his ex girlfriend is about to take a 70 page document detailing domestic abuse to the police. Utd the stomping ground of alleged abusers and rapists. Disgusting

I have to say im not sure why we play such a high line given we have to get it right every time otherwise the opposition are in. It only takes one lapse and we get exposed but I thing regardless with the training ground work pau will be fine it’s clear he is quality it might just take him few games to fully get up to speed which now will be sooner than maybe we all thought

Yep I agree on that for sure, we are in danger as a premier league of become like the Scottish, French or German league and it soon erodes the interest of your only looking at a race to see who comes second although the premier league more than others often seems to go in cycles so hopefully that’s what this is

I found it interesting watching the Burnley game that the Burnley fans were singing boring boring city. I enjoyed that because personally I find watching Man City really dull and lacking in any excitement, I just don’t find watching a team have 75/80% possession and boring teams into submission very interesting and I enjoyed realising I’m not the only one. I also was equally amused at the sky commentators attempts to tell us that city are not boring just controlled and that we should all admire them. im obviously not saying city are bad as they clearly are not, they have the best team in the league probably but it doesn’t mean they are fun to watch. Also I will say I don’t normally bother watching them but the wife was out and I was slightly excited for the start of the season but that evaporated after about 3 minutes

Paqueta going to Man City too apparently looking like a bad window for them

I’m kind of in the same place as you with this. I only have so much time to watch football and my priority is Villa (mens) either at VP or on tv Sky, BT or if needed peacock) then maybe one of the Sunday games if I get a chance so women’s football is fairly low down my interest list for the reason that I just on a personal basis don’t find it that interesting or exciting in the same way as I don’t watch a league 2 or none league game when they are on tv. I think it’s great that these different levels of football are available to those that wish to consume them it’s just not for me

All of the noise from football outsider is rubbish. They are usually the ones that say “Villa spent £20 million on emi Martinez and would want at least that much back for him” when in reality we all know it would require closer to £120 million to tempt us. Same with dougie and this rubbish, spurs are a nothing side and generally a laughing stock. Arsenal could be more realistic if they hadn’t just spent over £100 million on rice and nearly as much as havertz. I imagine with 3 years left on his deal we would want a minimum of £75-80 million and I don’t see that coming from arsenal. Most likely is we offer him a huge wage bump to sign another couple of years extension

They really are, it’s so rare that you would find a recent champions league and premed league runners up being the leagues laughing stock but it seems like that’s the case with spurs. Even when they were overachieving I don’t think any real football people were taking them seriously and this glorious Kane fiasco shows why. If he has any sense which is doubtful but if he does he will see out his contract and demand a signing fee of £80+ million next year for saving which ever club he goes to a huge transfer fee. The other thing I find strange about Kane is 5 years ago at the age of 25 when he had been banging in goals for 2/3 seasons why did he sign a 6 year contract ? That seems agent sackingly stupid to me. Why wouldn’t he just sign for 3 years with an option to extend. It seems to me that the only people to benefit were spurs by keeping him two years longer than he wanted but hey looks like they even messed that up with a 8th place finish despite his 30 goals and then losing him for free

Watching winks do next to nothing I’m firstly amused that levy was asking for £20+ million a few years back and secondly how has he played 10 times for England other than the Southgate factor as manager

The lad has hardly had a sniff at our first team and looking at the squad I don’t see where he is getting much game time with us over the next couple of years so a sale with a favourable buy back clause might suit all parties.

I think he can point to his success at the likes of Sevilla and Villarreal where he didn’t spend huge amounts of money but improved the teams and some very average players as evidence he can make even the seemingly unimprovable a bit better although with Olson that is a big ask

It’s good to see though isn’t it. To be honest I still want to see Kane stay and leave on a free at the end of the season and if it was me I would do that for sure. Why give levy £100 million when you could probably pocket most of that plus wages yourself

Omg konsa

I wouldn’t worry about it mate. Probably better that way for us, we know what we have and how he operates and I think one thing is for sure he is seen as well above average by Villa fans, players and board. Most likely it’s opposition fans being a little bit scared and rightly so of what he is building and how quickly and expertly he is doing it.

I agree completely the run was Ian rush/Robbie fowler like and then the touch and set up without the foul I think he is rolling it in to the bottom corner. I think he needs to get more physical but the movement is clever and he will get chances with movement and timing of the run.

Watching him body Vinicius off the ball shows to be what he is about defensively. Fairly decent pace, good reading of the game and a crazy level of strength. I’m not sure we will see many players out muscle him. On the ball he looks decent too even if still a little bit rusty.

I actually think he was an idiot to sign his 6 year contract in the first place. It’s not like he wasn’t already regarded as a top striker then. All he did was limit his earning capacity (I’m sure he had a decent annual increase in the contract) while not being able to leave a mid table club and being one of the Top strikers in the world. Bad agent advice in my opinion and I would say the is 0% chance he signs a new deal now. he goes for nothing next year, that would be brilliant

Assume he will wear 19. Clearly he wouldn’t sign until we offloaded marv to Luton and freed up the shirt

This to me just looks like a guy that loves going about his work at a club that trust abs supports him and wants success as much as he does. Never been so excited about the start of a season

The sun saying arsenal and spurs battling it out to sign him as if it’s a done deal he leaves. Unless the is a a release clause which I feel like the isn’t because we would have heard about it I would assume he would be fetching £80 million ? Given his form last season. I would say the is zero chance arsenal spend that much after just spending the best part of £150 mill on rice and timber. Spurs well that’s just a laughable suggestion from a silly little club so no point even discussing

I can see Chelsea being a bit better because I see no way they could be as bad again but looking at there squad they have very little in midfield and defensively they seem to be depending on a 39 year old albeit a very good one so I would say top 8 for them is likely but I don’t see them in the mix for top 4. spurs I see next to no improvement in that squad unless they get very busy in the market in the next few weeks. I don’t see Maddison making a huge difference, Kane if he stays will be eying up his massive payday on a free transfer, son is in free fall due to his pace disappearing and Bentoncur who I really like is out until probably October and an injury like that will take a while to get up to speed. Brighton I think will be around 10th I think, still a decent side but overachieved last year and will struggle with Europe and the league i think. for us and yes I have rose tinted glasses on but we have one of the most elite managers in the world, probably the top keeper in the world, huge depth In quality at cb with two recent europa league winners, full backs perhaps a bit light. Midfield looks stacked with quality and depth and we look like we have good im the wide attacking areas and diaby will add real quality. Up front I would like us to add one more because we are very reliant on Ollie and hopefully archer in Europe. So I think we have depth to compete on all fronts and I could see us pushing close for 4th

Good deal for all parties if we actually got a fee for him

Just checked it Davies was very close to 23mph diaby was about 22.3 mph so pretty quick still in my book

I feel for the lad and I hope he has access to the right support. However as a footballer finished completely although I always felt over rated

Noticed he signed the contract with his right hand maybe mings is safe
