I honestly cannot believe there is so much negativity towards Terry coming back, one of our most consistent performers and a huge positive presence in the dressing room (look how much love he is still getting from the players on social media). It's obviously not ideal we are currently short in CB position, but bloody hell pull yourselves together it's borderline embarrassing.

Get Rudi Garcia in.

If we get this chap and that defender then we've pulled off a blinder of a window.

Most of those players were signed during Bruce's tenure.

you and me both brother, that QPR game hit me especially hard as i also went the week before to see them struggle against sunderland ffs.

They are the same people that wanted Jack sold 2-3 seasons ago, you just have to acecpt that a minority of fans have no patience in football and only deal in extremes.

Using that logic are you not guessing he will not be good enough as starting CB? he has all the attributes to be a decent CB, his positioning lets him down alot at RB (which is understandable as it isn't actually his position). IMO his pace will be a huge asset for the backline at CB. We've seen enough of the Jedinak experiment, time to give the youngster his chance (i do't count Yeovil as the entire team played gash).

This just isn't true, both have made mistakes this season in each game they've played...but at least Tuanzebe has the pace to recover. Tammy adds some much needed pace to our front line, very happy!

Win tonight and we go joint top, come one Steve pull this one out!! ?

Really hope Jedinak doesn't play this one, he's struggled against ball-playing teams. Need 11 mobile players on the pitch.

has this boozy turd been flushed yet?

what about December of last season? 1 win in 6 matches, and we played dreadfully. I can see where you're coming from, but I think the majority of people are happy with the results but very concerned with the style of play. These people (including myself) remember the dreadful times we've been out of form over Steve's reign. This, combined with the knowledge that teams only seem to get promoted with a coherent and recognisable style of football is making everyone very unsettled. I think painting everyone feeling that way as a "infallible but the constant crusade" and " pathetic, tiresome and utterly pointless", is way over the top and frankly the type of short-sighted thinking that has this club still in the championship. edit; for the record i am hoping that Bruce turns the manner of which we are playing around whilst we are still winning, but experience hasn't made me so confident.

If we keep the ball on the deck I wholeheartedly agree with you.

His pace is a very useful asset to have at the back, several times he recovered the position after mistake from taylor et al.

Last night Glenn seemed intent on kicking every ball into the air last night, was really frustrating to watch as he can pick a pass on the deck. Would like to see him phased out for McGinn or BB.

Not a chance now we've seen his attitude, he won't be welcomed back.

Bravo and De Gea were shocking in their first seasons. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/row-zed/horrendous-stat-proves-man-citys-9628046 "Horrendous stat proves Man City's Claudio Bravo is currently the worst goalkeeper in the ENTIRE Premier League"

Classic Villa to have me accept jack is leaving, to then fully bring my hopes all the way up by announcing noone is for sell......to them smash them by infact selling him.

Spill the beans

Let's be quite honest here, the Villa job should not be your first ever managerial job......especially in what is such a crucial season coming up. We've already gambled big and lost, luckily we were saved in the 12th hour. Surely now it's time to learn from our mistakes, and to be steady footed rather than gamble it on a "what-if" celebrity name?

Just putting it out there guys, I think we should re-align our expectations and concentrate on stabilizing ourselves in this division (again) before speaking about promotion.

Please don't take my comment as aggressive mate, i completely agree with your point on English players. My biggest fear relating to this is foreign clubs being priced out of affording our national youth, as they seem to be the only ones that want to give them actual gametime....but i guess that's a conversation for another time.

Just another stat to consider, he averages an average of 2 key passes a game which is the 8th highest in the Championship. He also averages 3 successful dribbles a game which is the 4th best in the championship. He also averages 3.4 fouls a game, which is the highest in the championship. As you said you need to look at the all round game, and consider he is only 22, before being able to give an accurate opinion on the transfer-value valuation. https://www.whoscored.com/Regions/252/Tournaments/7/Seasons/6848/Stages/16231/PlayerStatistics/England-Championship-2017-2018
