  1. Charlotte lost to new England. Only goal of the game scored by a certain ex -villan Carles Gil. Somewhat ironic.
  2. Villa xg 0.36 and Brentford 0.06 tells you all you need to know about that half
  3. Yes three points dropped against the same man city which has only lost one at home in 67 games
  4. Are man city binning off the game as well because haaland and de bruyne are on the bench?! I think it's called squad rotation due to a busy month ahead
  5. Even emery mentioned possibility of going back to Italy in the summer (rather then galatasaray). I doubt he will stay with us even if he has a good end to the season.
  6. 2 good runs from him being selfish but one in the final this where he held the ball too long and a pass would have created a dangerous opportunity.
  7. Moreno has been atrocious going forward. Bring digne on. Rogers had a few good moments... probably his most confident performance so far.
  8. Yes and I was one of them. However, we had already bought bailey, while we still have a choice whether we buy zaniolo or not. £30m on the basis of present performances and the hope he comes good like bailey isn't a smart business decision.
  9. That's not what I'm saying at all . They clearly had doubts, as it was a loan with an option rather then outright purchase. Those doubts have materialised and we won't be signing zaniolo permanently.
  10. Or it is because he isn't very good.
  11. It's tempting to judge young players like Duran and Rogers every time they play, but that would be unfair. I remember Ramsey and Grealish weren't particular eye-catching in many of their earlier games but came good. Until they have a decent number of games under their belt we should try and enjoy the process, rather then get annoyed when the players don't meet our high expectations initially.
  12. Emery would have got rid of him ages ago if he wasn't a good coach. Considering the amount of defensive changes we had to make this season it is not surprising. We are also missing mings, who is exceptional at defending set pieces.
  13. He scores a goal and now suddenly he isn't so bad?! Zaniolo isn't a bad player but doesn't change the fact that he hasn't shown enough to warrant a £30m permanent move.
  14. Emery brought Konsa in at RB to help counter West Ham's physicality. As the system requires at least one full back to be attacking, Moreno skills are better suited in this area, as he is more of a ball carrier. But I do appreciate Digne's performances have been higher than Moreno's this season.
  15. Makes sense to prioritise Rogers if we aren't going to sign Zaniolo permanently. The only way Rogers will get up to speed is with game time.
  16. Bringing big Jhon in to match hammers physicality. Let just hope he doesn't do anything silly in the first 5 minutes!
  17. It's going to take Rogers time to get up to speed but is promising that he seems to make 1 or 2 really good chances every game he plays.
  18. Definite upgrade on traore. He has the same maverick ability but is more consistent, is better defensively and has end product.
  19. Lille is one of the harder ties but at least it's a short trip.
