  1. lol... He just got here, the season just started, and he's already complaining about not starting to the media. I didn't want him at Villa because his well documented character issues at both Leicester and Monaco and what do you know? It's already starting here... If you watched him last season he wasn't bothered at all and didn't even appear to put in the work to be fully match fit. Hasn't done anything in his appearances to displace anyone else from the starting lineup. Can't wait for him to give up completely within a few months then look like the lazy fook he was for Leicester again come Boxing day.
  2. Their gameplan is obvious... Digne can't get forward because Liverpool are overloading our left side of the pitch with an extra man, forcing Digne to stay back and man mark so we don't get completely ripped apart with a long ball into the channel. It's no coincidence 2 of our 3 chances came from the rare times he's actually been able to venture forward. I'm sure Emery will have a solution for this at halftime, but it's a shame that we're 2-0 down already to some BS goals. Some of the overreactions here are unneeded, but it wouldn't be a VT match thread without them. With that injury to Carlos, we now have 5 players out who could arguably be starting today if they were fit. Relax, it's going to be a long season. Plenty of time to iron issues out and get better once people get healthy again.
  3. I mean, that fat fook Simon Hooper was huffing and puffing so far back in Liverpool's half he couldn't even see it. No idea how some of these walking pastries are able to pass the fitness tests to be a Premier League referee, let alone the vision screening.
  4. I don’t get the obsession some have with Iroegbunam. He’d most likely be out on loan or sold if he wasn’t injured. No where near ready for the first team squad based on his time at QPR last season.
  5. Solid draw - We've avoided Frankfurt & Nordsjaelland and don't have to visit Borat in Kazakhstan. The Villa boys traveling to AZ should definitely prepare for a fight, though.
  6. What a player Kellyman is… Only 17… Could be another England star in the future.
  7. Playing like this is a friendly and still dominating them. That said, their No 7 has been a threat all game down the right. Superb pass from Torres to Duran for the first goal, and Duran’s finish was classy. I really like the look of Kellyman so far. He reminds me of JJ when he broke into the team. Excellent at the basics, but is extremely intelligent on and off the ball.
  8. This... We also have the January window to do business in as well. Even without Mings, Buendia, and Coutinho this is a stronger squad than last year on paper.
  9. Does anyone know if we can still loan Januzaj?????
  10. You could say the same thing about Bailey and Traore. Johnson's decision making is horrific and has been downright awful for Forest so far this season. He wouldn't improve us, IMO.
  11. Honestly, Plop winning this one is the best case scenario for us next weekend. If they lost today, you’d have to expect them proving a point against us next Sunday, but now it might spark some complacency among them.
  12. My biggest issue is the inconsistency between all the different refs. We lose games when the refs allow our opponents to rack up 40+ fouls without issuing a yellow card, but tend to dominate those where even soft fouls are called consistently. Don't even get me started on the VAR decisions...
  13. Are you watching the game? Liverpool are horrific and should be 2 men down right now...
  14. ...or maybe he finally has a solid run in the team under Emery for the first time ever?
  15. Yeah, that was a "Welcome to England" moment. Hopefully he'll learn from that and adapt. Other than that, he was great today. You could really see how much his and Carlos's passing ability open up our attacking play.
  16. Great performance from him again. He's turning out to be everything we hoped Bailey would be and more.
  17. I genuinely got goosebumps watching him play today. He is going to be a special player for us, I can feel it. Has everything in his locker to be a monster Premier League player.
  18. lol... It's exactly what Keane, Scholes, & Neville say on Sky every time Man United lose a game.
  19. No, that's Connor Hourihane... Everyone here acts like JWP is Hourihane 2.0. He's a much better player than anyone wants to admit.
  20. Have a bad feeling about this one. Could be an early season banana peel to slip on for us. Everyone is underestimating Burnley, but they absolutely walked the Championship last season while playing freeflowing footy.
  21. Shocked. One of the top young talents in Europe and probably could have gone to Madrid if he wanted to. Liverpool had apparently been trying to sign him for most of the summer as well (which is another signing they missed out on purely because of money).
  22. Wan Bissaka would be an instant starter and the perfect RB in Emery's system. He's the best defensive right back in the Prem and an elite 1v1 defender. I honestly thought he would be one of our targets this summer back in ~February/March, but he's played his way into ten Hag's future plans at ManUre during the second half of last season. I'd be surprised if he left now because he's rumored to have entered contract renewal negotiations.
