  1. Yeah, but can Gerrard's system work on a cold rainy night in Brighton????
  2. Only took us 65 minutes and an offside penalty decision to get the team to wake up...
  3. Yeah, but we were willing to look the other way because "Gerrard needs a preseason".
  4. I'd be more worried if Preece and/or Evans said the board is starting to lose faith with him... Those two clowns don't really have a clue with what's goin on at the club.
  5. Great... Fits with Bruceball--I mean Gerrardball, philosophy. Defend, get the ball to Grealish--I mean Zaha, and hope he can do something magical to score. Otherwise, blame the fans when it doesn't work out.
  6. You mean the way it's supposed to be done? Agreeing a deal with the player's representation before getting permission from his club is what's known as "tapping up" and is not technically legal.
  7. Don't make this out to be a race thing... You're trying to imply something that I'm not. Read Watford's forum which I quoted yesterday... His biggest weapon is his pace and he doesn't use it most games. They're happy to sell him, especially for 25 million, considering they paid 28 million for him and he's incredibly inconsistent. They consider him to be a flop.
  8. Thank god this is off... Wrong player who is inconsistent and lazy. I wouldn't give Gerrard another dime at this point.
  9. That would require Gregg Evans actually doing work beyond one terrible article/week...
  10. Shocked that the VAR ref questioned the decision.... Never seen this happen before in England. The Referee's Union basically defends each others bad calls
  11. One of the best assists I've seen in a long time. Brilliant!
  12. Watching all the teams around us playing blinders this weekend makes me even more angry that we have fookin' Gerard as our manager. Another wasted opportunity this year.
  13. Newcastle looking very good today too...
  14. Did you actually watch any of the games from Arsenal in Arteta's first season and a half? They didn't just go from being shit for a long time to good overnight. He inherited a bloated, overpaid, and unbalanced squad with not a lot of talent with huge egos. He spent a ridiculous amount of money clearing out deadwood and players with attitude problems and brought in players who fit his system, and generally spent the money well. On top of that, he slowly added more and more and more to their tactical instructions and didn't care about the score for a long time, as long as his team was making progress learning their new system. That's the difference with Arteta compared with Gerrard... Gerrard has spent big on his players, but we look even more tactically clueless than we did after he arrived. There is no game plan and a lot of excuses from him and his staff. The players look lost on the pitch and some look like they're giving up. Hoping for an "Arteta turn around" isn't going to happen...
  15. What???? Poch isn't more realistic than Potter... In fact, he's probably the most unrealistic name being thrown around here. He'll be the first person one of the elite clubs call as soon as they sack their manager. The same thing was said on here about Smith when we sacked Bruce. "Why would he come to Villa? Brentford are in a much better spot than we are!" Potter would be attracted to the quality of player, infrastructure, and funds available to him at Villa compared to Brighton.
  16. No way in Hell Tuchel would come to Villa, even if he got the sack today.
  17. He's lost the fans now, though. No way he survives that long when the boos start. Villa Park will be hostile this Sunday if we go behind early.
  18. He won't survive past the Man City game. West Ham will turn around their form against us next weekend, Arteta's Arsenal will tear us to shreds the following, and if that isn't the final nail in the coffin for Gerrard, Pep arrives to finish the job. If we don't soundly beat Bolton at midweek and West Ham rip us apart on Sunday, we might see the back of Gerrard before that.
  19. Chelsea down to 10 men now... hahaha One of the worst performances I've seen from a top 4 club in a long long time.
  20. 3-0 Leeds... Making Chelsea look like mugs here. That's exactly what happens when you go into a match with a gameplan and your players execute it perfectly.
  21. Most of the players who annoyed me aren't playing now. Bumford, Ayling, Dallas, & Klich.
  22. Leeds 2-0 up. Absolutely dominating Chelsea for most of the half so far. Chelsea only have threatened on the counter via long balls into the channel to Sterling. You can absolutely see what Marsch is building at Leeds. Depressing to see as a Villa fan.
  23. Aaronson just robbed Mendy and tapped into an open net. This game is a lesson in how to press.
