    I think Pau improves us but our poor performances are down to the team as a whole (individuals not in form or making errors)and the opposition tactics to nullify our midfield.
  2. Made In Aston
    You would have thought at least 8 wins would be needed.
  3. Made In Aston
    Teams are either parking the bus to reduce passing options from midfield to attack or pressing high and stopping passing lanes from defence to midfield. Both tactics stop our midfield from playing their game. When they are given space you get performances like Sheffield United. Unfortunately these situations are becoming fewer and fewer, as teams have worked out how to nullify our threat. Emery needs to come up with a plan B to deal with it asap. Otherwise it's going to be a very disappointing second half of the season.

    At a guess... In time for Fulham or forest at the latest
  5. Made In Aston
    He is getting a run the team, so I'd expect him to be up to speed by now.
  6. Made In Aston
    I disagree. Gerrard would have been lauded as it would have been one of his best every managerial performances.

    Strange decisions tonight. No changes at half time and so no difference in performance or tactical structure in the second half. It was clear to see early on that this team wasn't going too improve without a few substitutions, but he left it over 70 minutes before making any. By then the game had pretty much gone and there wasn't much time to turn it around in any case. Then Emery makes two pointless subs in the 85 minutes...I really can't see the reasoning. All a bit bizarre and very unEmery-like.

    We are struggling to create chances at home, no matter the quality of opposition. It is a worrying trend that Emery needs to sort out asap if we are going too qualify for champions league this season

    I'd take him off, move tielemans into his position and bring on Ramsey

    After seeing the press conference today, I would not want to be Harry Potter meeting Emery down a dark alley. He would probably end up shoving the magic wand somewhere very personal!

    That post is going to get dogs abuse next time we are at Bramall Lane....mark my words!!!

    It's why keeping the star makes some sense. There are a few clubs with lion emblems, so having the lion and star makes it more recognisable.
  13. Made In Aston
    It won't be. They have trademarked the one with the detailed lion now. It's still shit, albeit a more palatable version.
  14. Made In Aston
    Lenglet it continue!
  15. Made In Aston
    Short term yes. But we are averaging 2pts a game and if we continue to do that until the end of the season, then we probably finish in top 4, regardless of what happens against Man Utd.
  16. Made In Aston
    Sheffield were awful, so it's easy to improve the Newcastle performance against a very poor side. I do think that we will need to make tactical changes, as we have been too predictable and struggle against low blocks and opponents who stifle the midfield. It was good to hear Unai commenting that part of our plan was to move the ball quicker, as we looked a bit pedestrian in recent games and will help to create space. I think the Man Utd & Chelsea games will give a clearer indication of any improvement, as Sheffield was more like a training match.
  17. Made In Aston
    Yeah. Too many colours going on in the club's version and gold on blue looks shit. I'm not that keen on the gold anyway, but guess the top left version could work as a one off 150 years logo. The bottom two are probably the best.
  18. Made In Aston
    It must have been the thought of Rogers taking his position
  19. Made In Aston
    Mind-blowingly so, considering we had him on loan for half a season beforehand. Gerrard saw him every day in training and thought...wow that's one hell of a keeper!
  20. Made In Aston
    I think it is Friday at 12, so Rogers should be fine.
  21. Made In Aston
    I can't wait to be called entitled. It means expectations have risen and we might actually be competing at a high level.
  22. Made In Aston
    If only we had recruited Barcelona's head of academy instead of West Brom's Mark Harrison.
  23. Made In Aston
    He isn't good enough for us but he is too good for the championship. Whichever team gets him has got a good deal.
  24. Made In Aston
    Another signing from the world renowned West Brom academy (albeit Indirectly)! We must have the laziest academy scouts in Europe
  25. Made In Aston
    He needs benching for a bit. Maybe Bailey, Rogers or Zaniolo should be given a chance.
