  1. One of the things that they are the kings of is selling a first team player for a decent wedge of money every summer which helps with FFP. Summer of '23 - Palmer 47m, Mahrez 35m, Laporte 27.5m Summer of '22 - Sterling 56m, G. Jesus 52m, Zinchenko 35m, Porro was only 8m per transfermarkt but had a sell on clause Summer of '21 - Torres - 55m, Angelino - 20m, Summer of '20 - Sane - 50m Not saying we need to sell anyone, but being able to have the flexibility to do something like this would be extremely helpful with FFP.
  2. yeah, I would be extremely surprised if any of the top 5 are not in the top 5 by the end of the season. 5-point gap between 5th & 6th, and an 8-point gap between 5th and 7th.
  3. I think we are going to miss him, more defensively sound than Moreno
  4. Saka does that consistently. when will he get a yellow for simulation
  5. For me, the circle badge is a complete rip off of the Chelsea badge, with a shade of claret and blue that I don't particularly associate with Villa. I understand why it was chosen -- the alternative option was not good either, almost like Purslow wanted a reason that most would pick the round badge.
  6. he's the weak link in the starting XI now
  7. McBurnie ties it, Solanke doubles bournemouth's lead in their first penalty for 66 games
  8. I believe a goal kick? The ball went out and ref stopped for the check. VAR can't give a FK for that type of incident though
  9. that wasn't given because there was not "clear and obvious" evidence that the arm was inside the box.
  10. Kuivert isn't really an out and out striker though, he's more similar to Zaniolo. Beto has almost 4x the minutes Duran has and still less goals (I know Serie A / background but someone like Scamacca still only managed 3 PL goals). Richarlison, yeah I'd expect that since he cost 60m and is Spurs best out and out striker. I think the issue is we aren't going to get a good "back-up" striker while Watkins is always going to be 1st choice. And TBH I'd take Durán over all of those who you mentioned except Richarlison (Not including Isak as he would start over Wilson, but Wilson would be too expensive to be on our bench)
  11. 16 points from a possible 18 in their last 6 matches. We were the only team to get anything from them.
  12. I genuinely have no clue what is and is not a handball in the Premier League anymore and I am a certified referee.
  13. I'd be pretty surprised if we signed another striker in Jan and how many PL teams have backup strikers who are better than Duran? Not many I'd say
